The Departure (2017)

An intimate character study of the complex figure Ittetsu Nemoto, an aimless and rebellious former punk rocker-turned-Buddhist priest. He is renowned in Japan for saving the lives of countless suicidal men and women through his wise and compassionate counsel. But Nemoto is now approaching middle-age with a wife and young boy of his own, when he learns his life is at risk from heart disease, compounded by the heavy emotional workload of supporting those who no longer want to live. When saving others takes such a toll, can he find the resiliency to save himself?

Sad, tender and quietly moving, The Departure never says more than it needs to, much like its subject, a Buddhist priest who counsels those contemplating suicide.

David Lewis 02 Nov 2017

The Departure is an excellent example of a filmmaker finding a perfect wavelength with her main character.

Matthew Lickona 25 Oct 2017

Lana Wilson's documentary portrait of [Buddhist priest] Nemoto triumphs as a story but stumbles as a movie.

Robert Abele 18 Oct 2017

Unfailingly sensitive about issues of selflessness and suffering, The Departure is in a way its own work of meditation, on the pressures of living up to the turbulent promise of life’s expected length.

Christopher Llewellyn Reed 24 Jan 2018

Told in a purely observational style, without talking-head interviews (though with some voiceover), the movie is remarkable for the deliberate patience of its camera aesthetics.
