This virtually wordless, documentary-fiction hybrid follows a family eking out a hardscrabble existence on a barren island. With its stunningly poetic images of the sea and nature, kaleidoscopic modernist score, and heart-stopping climax, Kaneto Shindo's art-house sensation packs an unforgettable visual and emotional punch.
