“Good japanese thriller about the afterlife, that happens about the time of Fukushima disaster. The rhythm of the story is slow.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt follows a woman that is a soul without accomplishing her objective at Earth (it can be in or out life).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGood characters, sensitive movie – maybe not fit for everyone. It have a Ghibli characteristics to it, without the cute characters.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGood photography, but do not expect FX effects to compensate the natural / supernatural interactions.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBut in the end it lacks something to enhance it more – maybe more emotion on the scenes to bring tears to the eyes. My score: 6,5 / 10,0 / B-.”
