Ozu: The Filmmaker of Happiness
In the later part of his oeuvre, the famous Japanese filmmaker Yasujirō Ozu looks at the society of post-war Japan through family stories from the lower middle class. Arte has compiled a decalogy of 10 films from this period from the director's creative work. This short documentary film, created in this context, explains the film works using fragments of Ozu's notes, which he wrote between 1933 and 1963, elegant drawings and film clips. A fine insight into the themes and aesthetics of this moving cinema about intimacy and the passage of time and a fascinating journey into the moving final part of the Japanese master's work.

Reviews
Fantastic!
Admirable film.
It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
