Megane
Description: Among the most memorable things about Megane are an empty white beach a luminous turquoise sea and a verdant country road Descending on this paradise Taeko a buttoned up bespectacled woman dragging a very large suitcase checks into a tiny seaside inn Expecting to be left alone she s put off when the hotel s proprietor Yuji sits down to eat with her She s even more disgruntled when Sakura a placid revered older woman takes the liberty of entering Taeko s room to wake her up But seeking haven at another hotel proves farcical and Taeko sheepishly returns to her unconventional hosts Relieved she gradually tunes into their simple community and cultivates what Yuji calls the talent to be here There s a lot of talk about the visceral power of film But Megane takes a step further manifesting a process whereby the viewer can partake in the characters peace As Yuji and Sakura prepare exquisite meals and practice playful exercises on the sand we like Taeko begin to yield to their pace and absorb their benevolence As all engage in twilighting a pastime involving staring into space we too find that our breathing deepens our gaze relaxes Watching Megane becomes a meditation A soulful journey rife with subtle aha moments Megane is minimalist and quiet but never didactic or serious Like a good Buddhist teacher its unexpected humor delights and thaws us
