Anecdotes
Danny Glover's birthday was the same night the concert scene was filmed. During the first take, when Woolfolk said "action", instead of playing the music for the scene, the orchestra played Happy Birthday, followed by a cake being brought onto the set. In his remarks to the cast and crew, Glover spoke of how he and Bennet Guillory had performed in the building thirty-five years earlier when it first opened as a community center and theater.

A great drama with moving performances

I really enjoyed this film. It's the feature debut of Aaron Woolfolk. I'd seen one of his shorts before about a train station in Japan. But it's clear he has more to say!

The great Danny Glover gives an excellent performance in a supporting role, but it's Bennet Guillory who shines as a stubborn father who has to come to terms with his estranged son (played by Victor Grant). I was less familiar with the Japanese actors but now want to see more of them including Saki Takaoaka who is a big deal in Japan.

The film is beautifully shot with stunning cinematography. You really feel like you're in rural Japan (and San Francisco where parts of the film also take place). Check it out on Netflix, DVD or Bluray.
