Departures (2008)


It is such a beautiful movie about life and death
A lot of movies have been talking about the same topic 
however, many of them were too sensational
This one is expectedly plain and natural (yes, death is natural for always)

In the movie, there are descriptions about how Japanese prepare the last journey for their beloved

The whole thing can be disgusting. I have never imagined that funeral can take place at home, and the corpse is just right there in front of you
However, there is no fear in between
there is only reverence that people trying to make peace with the finality of their love

As it says, "Death is just a gate for another world"; care that we show is the gift of last memories
