Set in Tokyo, "Ito - A Diary of an Urban Priest" tells the story of Yoshinobu Fujioka, a young Buddhist priest, and his fervent search for the meaning of life amid oppressive dreams, back alleys of the city and the darkness of the human mind. Yoshinobu hears confession in a women's prison, bars and an old geisha house, while the many layers of nocturnal Tokyo and unpredictable memories are twisted into a web that drives people face-to-face with one another.

A documentary about a young Japanese priest, his spiritual struggles and conversations with strangers and people who have played an important part in his life. The film has some artistic merits, but left me completely cold - I struggled to connect with any of the people in the film, found its philosophical pondering empty and the imagery of the nightly Tokyo, while at times pretty, felt also pretty clichéd.
