#Bales2025FilmChallenge of July 24: someone goes to a spa, beach, or retreat

Hiroshi Shimizu Part II: The Postwar and Independent Years
Declared a genius by Kenji Mizoguchi, Hiroshi Shimizu remains one of the forgotten masters of Japanese cinema. Distinguished by his loosely sketched plots and roaming camera, Shimizu’s worlds are suffused with an innate naturalism and a lyrical humanism that observes the journeys of children, outcasts and travelers alike.
