It is an excellent movie that perfectly explains the human condition.

Rating: 10/10 (16 January 2016)

This is by far the most beautifully made film I have come across in life! Such beauty! Not just visual or sonic beauty, the beauty of thought, the human condition- how beauty and melancholy are two sides of the same coin. It deserves all the acclaim it has got; it is truly a masterpiece. Nothing beautiful has ever been created without pain. Even a mother has to feel so much pain before she can hold her baby in her arms. It leaves me wondering what the makers of such a film must have experienced in life to create such a beautiful piece of art. It perfectly depicts the perspective of a musician and what drives him to create music; and actors who have to turn themselves into a different person for every new role. The movie perfectly depicts the contrast between youth and old age and yet it leaves a message that we are all the same regardless of how old or young we are and also that something beautiful is what holds emotional meaning to us rather than visual pleasure. The movie explains not only the complexities of inter- human relationships but the complexities of our existence in fast-moving time itself. Those lines in the movie that talk about "human-touch" and how so much can be understood about one another by just touch really moved me. And cast, cinematography, music, editing- everything together really complement each other.
