The ballad of Narayama 1958 EN
A Commentary byBeringen
In a sleepy hamlet, tradition dictates that anyone above the age of seventy must be banished to the mountains for the good of the village. When her son remarries, an elderly woman rejoices that she can begin her exile in peace. A kabuki theatre-inflected story about a poor village whose people have to be carried to a nearby mountain to die once they get old.
