Sinopsis(1)
Takada, a Japanese fisherman, has been estranged from his son for many years, but when the son is diagnosed with terminal cancer his daughter-in-law, Rie, summons him to the hospital. When his son refuses to see him, Rie gives him a videotape about the work his son was doing on a documentary film in a remote region of China's Yunnan province. Still troubled by the relationship, Takada decided to complete his son's work in part to develop an understanding of his son, and in part to do something for him. Once in China, a series of obstacles and relationships bring him unexpectedly closer to both an understanding of himself and of his son. (texto oficial de la distribuidora)

A very pleasant, but also very quiet journey towards redemption. A dad isn’t speaking to his own son his entire life and he doesn’t even know why anymore. When the son is on his deathbed, he decides to make one of his dreams come true and travels to China. The landscapes are gorgeous, the people are strange, there’s a brutal language barrier and the story is vague, but at the same time, it finishes a life journey. I don’t know why but I feel like China makes the most poetic movies and their sceneries play up to it perfectly. And that’s very evident in this movie.
