RED PERSIMMONS
Manzan Benigaki
Synopsis
The ostensible subject of this remarkably beautiful film is the growing, drying, peeling and packaging of persimmons in the tiny Japanese village of Kaminoyama. The film’s larger subject, however, is the disappearance of Japan’s traditional culture, the end of a centuries-old way of life.
