Superb and invigorating - New York Times The travel film at its most personal and evocative - LA Times Contemplatively captures the old Japan
Lucille Carra and Brian Cotnoir re-create the lyrical vision of old Japan captured by Donald Richie in his classic travel memoir. The film adaptation combines select passages of Richie's text warts and all - romantic, prickly, judgmental- with original interviews and extended observational sequences conveying a play on the structures of interior monologue and ethnographic cinema. The result observes Richie as a post-World War II expatriate American living in Japan as much as it observes a fading rural culture. THE INLAND SEA has been screened at over 100 international film festivals, including SUNDANCE, LONDON, SYDNEY, MELBOURNE, AUCKLAND AND WELLINGTON, SAN FRANCISO, LOST ANGELES, MANNHEIM, LEIPZIG. Directed and Adapted by Lucille Carra Produced by Brian Cotnoir and Lucille Carra Written and Narrated by Donald Richie, based on his book Cinematography by Hiro Narita, ASC Music Composed by Toru Takemitsu Executive Producer: Gerrald Carrus © Travelfilm Company
