The Tsunami and the Cherry Blossom

39 min
Documentary
Lucy Walker
On 11 March 2011, an earthquake caused a tsunami to hit the Tōhoku (Northeast) region of Japan. In this film, survivors of the tsunami rebuild as cherry blossom season begins. The film is a stunning visual haiku about the ephemeral nature of life–and of the healing power of Japan's most beloved flower.

Feels most like IMAX Hubble, In the Realms of the Unreal and Making 'The Shining'
