Radiance

Radiance

Misako (Ayame Misaki) is a passionate writer of film versions for the visually impaired. At a screening, she meets Nakamori (Masatoshi Nagase), an older photographer who is slowly losing his eyesight. Misako soon discovers Nakamori’s photographs, which strangely bring her back to her past. Together, they learn to see the radiant world that had been invisible to her eyes.

Following its world premiere in competition at Cannes where it received the Ecumenical Jury Prize, Naomi Kawase's RADIANCE was nominated for the NETPAC Award at Rotterdam and the Golden Spike for Best Film at Spain’s Valladolid International Film Festival.

“A true gem of a film: a subtle, moving, abstract and emotional exploration of the experience of sensory impairment.” –Cineuropa
