Synopsis
Oriental Elegy evokes Russuan director Sokurov's (Whispering Pages, Mother and Son) meditative journey to a small Japanese island village with a landscape, house, objects and people that, as in a dream, appear blurred through the mist. His encounter with lonely old people and the way they see their lives ending is sensitive and careful. It is at the same time an interior journey for the director, where sounds revive memories of his own countru, Russia.
