More Than You Think

Taka (Yota Kawase) is a lovely man, looking after his elderly, demented uncle in a rural region and spending his free time playing his bongos and whistling sentimental tunes. When his uncle dies, his cousin grudgingly allows him to remain in the large family home and even offers him a job, working at his cousin's local fishing pond. Taka is happy, and life is good, until a couple from Tokyo move with their young daughter to the village, with a dream of creating a teashop complete with their organic, natural and absolutely delicious food offerings. But they need a place in which to open their shop, and the beautiful old home where Taka lives seems the perfect place indeed.... I don't want to say too much about this film, except to note that what seems for much of the movie to be a quiet slice-of-life story becomes, later on, something very, very different. I like films that mix up various genres because they almost by definition cannot be formulaic, and "Being Natural" is a terrific example of this. The first film my husband and I have seen at FantAsia 2018, we're off to a great start!
