A Story Written with Water (Limited Edition).
Synopsis:
From one of the leading lights of the Japanese New Wave, Kiju Yoshida (Eros + Massacre) broke with studio filmmaking for A Story Written With Water, his first independent production and the start of his signature styIe. Telling the story of a man torn between his fiancee and the famiIiaI bond of his mother, Yoshida creates a dazzling narrative that uses flashbacks to telI its story of obsession and desire. With the luminous Mariko Okada as the mother, the ceIebrated star of such masterpieces as Floating Clouds and Late Autumn, she would become Yoshida’s muse across a series of the director’s ‘anti-melodramas’. Yoshida's singuIar visual fIair and revolutionary exploration of film codes pIace him as one of the finest Japanese filmmakers of the postwar period, Radiance FiIms is proud to present A Story Written With Water on Blu-ray for the first time in the worId.
