In this scene, Paul Bowles (author of the novel) delivers a monologue on the brevity of life and the seemingly limitless possibilities of the living. The finale of the film features an emotional sequence as he discusses his favourite quotation from the film “The Sheltering Sky” (1990), which he composed the music for. He tells anecdotes about his career, looks back on his various successes, and shares his thoughts on life and music. In fact, there are no cutaways to talking heads, and the whole documentary is narrated by Sakamoto himself. For example, the stack of DVD cases, or the numerous instruments in his studio, let you see Sakamoto’s world rather than hearing about it from others. Schible effortlessly picks up on details that highlight the composers interests and ideals. The intimate nature of the documentary, as it follows Sakamoto in his studio, during his performances, or strolling through the woods, really allows you a look inside his world. The director Stephen Nomura Schible does little to distract from his subject, letting the scenes play out naturally. His love of the work of Andrei Tarkovsky and recent collaborator Alejandro González Iñárritu, shows that he is a connoisseur of films and of great art as well as a producer of it. He is also a man with a great appreciation for what he does. Whether it is recording noises in the woods, or other natural sounds, to incorporate into his music or experimenting with various instruments, sounds, or techniques, he seems to have a boundless sense of childlike wonder and limitless imagination. We see, throughout the film, a man whose restless creativity drives him forward. He is helped in this by his complete devotion to his art. As he explains, all he can do is attempt to stave off the inevitable for as long as he can. He stoically accepts his condition and it would be hard to say that his has been a wasted life.
“ Ryuichi Sakamoto: CODA” also spends time discussing the composer’s own struggles with cancer. This tragic event will not soon be forgotten in Japan and the film shows the importance of it on the lives of everyone it affected. We see Sakamoto on demonstrations outside government offices and giving a performance for those sheltering those who have lost their homes. Following the meltdown at the Fukushima nuclear reactor and the deaths and displacement of many people, the concern about nuclear energy in Japan has grown.
This leads us into the two major concerns of his life: music and his anti-nuclear activism. Sakamoto looks over the salvaged instrument that he is still able to play. The piano was hit by the tsunami and floated away, with evidence of tide marks showing its journey. The film begins with Sakamoto examining a piano that was recently recovered from the site of the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster. Ryuichi Sakamoto: CODA is screening at the Toronto Japanese Film Festival Director Stephen Nomura Schible, who has also directed one of Sakamoto’s concerts, gives us an inside look into the life of this maestro. His career began with a pioneering electronic music group in the late 1970’s and he has always maintained a unique aesthetic. Lawrence” (1983), “The Last Emperor” (1987) and most recently “The Revenant” (2015).
