Wandering, dir. Lee Sang-il, Japan 2022, 150 min., Japanese with English subtitles, 15 © 2022 “Wandering” Film Partners


A ten-year-old girl, Sarasa (Suzu Hirose) spends her time alone in a rainy park. One day, Fumi (Tori Matsuzaka), a nineteen-year-old university student, comes along and invites her to his apartment. The two lonely souls seem to have finally found a place in the world together until Fumi is arrested for kidnapping. Fifteen years later, the two meet again.

Lee Sang-il is a Japanese-Korean director known for portraying human existence under extreme conditions. The depiction of the protagonists’ emotional plight and the superb cinematography by Hong Kyung-pyo (Parasite) unceasingly pull in the viewer. Wandering is based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Yu Nagira.
