SYNOPSIS / Editorial Review about - Cafe Lumiere
Cafe Lumiere - dual burden is split between the film - protagonist Yoko (Hitito Yo) and her friend Hajime (Asano Tadanobu), an owner of a small bookshop. Hajime - pastime is to travel Tokyo - serpentine train and subway lines making live audio recordings of the dynamic, found sounds. Yoko is ostensibly working at a career as a writer but more likely is simply a university graduate searching around her for a purpose. She is currently attached to the idea of researching Jiang Ewn-Ye, a Taiwanese pianist who moved to Japan and flourished in popularity and in a number of arts.
This film is a tribute to the Japanese master Ozu Yasujiro to commemorate the 100th anniversary of his birthday. The spirit of Ozu's films, especially Tokyo Story, can easily be felt in Coffee Jikou. Hou Hsiao-hsien admits that he has been thinking of how Ozu would have shot a film in today's Japan. Coffee Jikou has been selected for numerous film festivals.
