Ryuichi Sakamoto: CODA
2017・Japan・United States・101 minutes
The godfather of Japanese new music, Ryuichi Sakamoto, held a benefit concert to comfort the living after the 311 earthquake, but was diagnosed with the third stage of throat cancer not long after! Forced to take a break from work to recuperate, his creativity continued to explode. Not only did he take on the task of composing the soundtrack for the "Ghost Hunter" movie, but he also created a new music album "Async". This film lasted five years of personal recording, providing an in-depth analysis of Sakamoto Ryuichi's career and life, his enthusiastic participation in social movements, and the changes in his thinking and behavior caused by being close to death. And his musical writing of this world is like a classic melody that has been passed down for a long time, continuing to bring profound spiritual touches to the world.
