Short NYFF reviews ALL ABOUT MY SISTERS and Haruhara-san’s Recorder

 


ALL ABOUT MY SISTERS

Filmmaker Wang Qiong interviews her sisters and films their lives. In an epic three hour look into the lives of several women in China.  This is a good but long film  that I in all honesty had to break up into several parts. I liked that the film opened my facets of life in China I had not considered.

Worth a look for the patient.


Haruhara-san’s Recorder

Impressionistic portrait of the life of a woman in Japan. Great looking film is going to work best for those who like deliberate measured films that you have to work with.

I loved the look of the film but I never connected to it emotionally.
