The Harbor Lights, directed by Mojiri Adachi, offers a raw, intimate look at Akari's life, a third-generation Korean navigating the shadows of her family's past in post-earthquake Kobe. The film has this slow-burn pacing that allows moments to breathe, really immersing you in the atmosphere of the city, both haunting and beautiful. The practical effects used to depict the aftermath of the Great Hanshin Earthquake feel incredibly authentic, grounding the story in reality. Performances are heartfelt, especially from the lead, who captures the essence of resilience amidst chaos. The themes of identity and displacement are woven throughout, making it a distinctive piece that lingers in the mind long after watching.
