Departures. A wonderful movie.A young musician loses his job and returns to the home of his youth. He has to give up his treasured instrument. He stumbles into a job handling departures. Of bodies and souls.
The taboo subject of death intersperes with moments of living. The "untouchable" job becomes a commitment to provide a dignified, gentle and kind sending off of family, friends and strangers. A final goodbye turns into an opportunity for forgiveness and redemption.
A movie that will make you smile, draw your tears and softly but surely touch your heart.
Not to be missed.
