On this documentary, filmmaker Daniel Raim delves into Yasujiro Ozu's outstanding late work, through which the grasp made the leap from black and white to paint. In his stirring tribute to the nice filmmaker, Raim examines Ozu's life and work via archival treasures corresponding to his diary and the purple teakettle from the household drama "Equinox Flower" (1958); sits down with Ozu's nephew and the producer of the director's gently elegiac closing movie, "An Autumn Afternoon" (1962); and interweaves many scenes and pictures from the colourful and humane movies with which the director capped his profession.
