“Departures”

おくりびと – ‘Sender’. Literal meaning is a person who sees someone else off (eg. at the airport). But in this show, the sender is an occupation for sending off the dead.

You can see more at the official website.

It’s a very touching show. It reflected how people view this occupation and will touch on things we seldom/dun wan to talk about like death and funerals etc…

Also, this movie has gotten Oscar’s ‘Best Foreign Film’ award. Worth watching. :)
