Belíssima estreia ficcional do Kore-eda, um estudo contemplativo e detalhado da experiência do luto, quem já perdeu alguém relevante para a sua vida sabe que por mais que os anos passem aquele sentimento sempre estará lá, mesmo que escondidinho.

Even in the most intimate and poignant human moments, Koreeda's characters are always facing away from the camera, indistinguishable against a vast landscape shot, or shrouded in darkness. At the same time, his shot compositions create a mystical tone throughout the whole film - distant and otherworldly in its muted colors, yet deeply familiar in its thematic power.

Carefully composed static shots, often filmed from a below-Ozu angle, record the grief and paralysing confusion resulting from an unexplained suicide. For most of the running time, the protagonist barely speaks, and the audience is left to construe her feelings from the details of the surrounding scene: when in the final moments she finally gives voice to her anguish, the effect seems unsubtle and underwhelming, and it may have been better to have just allowed the viewer to fill in the blanks.

One of the greatest films about grief. Words can’t describe the beauty and weight. The light, textures, colors, framing, sounds. Restraint in performance. The image of a lightbulb rolling back and forth next to a ticking alarm clock on a nightstand tells the story of the film - how fragile is happiness, how influenced by the natural progression, what we can’t control. Can we ever find comfort when beauty/connection has been torn away from us without warning or clear meaning?

The way it’s all set up with the patience of the shots makes you feel like you’re not really supposed to be there. You’re kept at a distance. It’s beautiful and heartbreaking. There’s a lot of hope and beauty in the shots of the children and their activities.

there was just so many little things I loved about the movie. The little old lady, the kids, the scene of the two of them riding the stolen bike, all of the scenes in the small town and the funeral scene(destroyed me). Maybe some of Koreeda’s(maybe best?) composition work. The long, lingering shots really give the feeling of it being lived in. The use of greens and yellows just evokes something. Makes it almost feel like your memories. An instant favourite.

a beautiful experience and exactly what i'm looking for in film right now, the kind of movie that lets you inhabit a world through slow pacing and beautiful shots framed meticulously. The themes are simple but are given space to unfold naturally with minimal exposition. the score is sparse so you pay attention when it floats in. the scene by the fire near the ocean was deeply poingnant and touched on a human quality of being drawn towards oblivion which i haven't seen observed like this before.

The fact that Koreeda manages to explore subjects like suicide/loss (in this), child abandonment (in Nobody Knows) and death/memory (in After Life) whilst taking such a calm, unsentimental approach not only offers you more space to think about what is happening on screen, but also honestly also just makes these films feel much more emotionally resonant and affecting. Maborosi in particular is very beautiful, at once both haunting and therapeutic.

Maborosi is an odyssey of a young woman through 4 elements of the nature where at the final we can see all of them together, and finally she is cured from her pain amd reconciles with the earth and chooses life over death. Neo-Ozu mono no aware movie.

Everything about Maborosi seems measured. There is a solemn refrain in each shot, as angles and images are repeated, all leading to a musing on memory and how grief manifests itself in many ways.

A very thoughtful take on grief and moving on. In the last quarter however it seems to meander through a meaning to everything that has taken place throughout the rest of it that is unsatisfying.
