*Raindance Preview Review* Lost and Found [2008] dir Nobuyuki Miyake

Miyake's film is exactly what it says on the tagline - "Something that is once lost but is found again."

The characters in this film bump into each other by losing and finding things around a nameless train station. It is film dependent on causality and it is a rather affecting film. You begin to reflect on what you lost and what you have found. Ultimately, it is all about life. Life is all about losing and finding, being at a place and time, somewhere. And those are the best films - the ones that make you think about yourself and what surrounds you. "No man is an island."  There is very little to be said about this film other than "Watch it". It will stay with you long after you have seen it. [OFFICIAL WEBSITE] http://gazebofilm.jp/lostandfound/HOME.html [OFFICIAL WEBSITE]
