De las 4 peliculas que a la fecha ha dirigido Reygadas, no hay una sola que no haya repetido por lo menos 3 veces. En Japón, Reygadas aborda el tema de la crisis existencial de la manera mas profunda y radical. Un hombre de mediana edad ha decidido quitarse la vida en un apartada comunidad rodeada de impresionantes acantilados y pobreza extrema. Encontrara cobijo con una anciana indigena, que lo hara desistir de tan macabro proyecto. Triste, redentora, simple,compleja. Asi es el cine de Reygadas. Muy buena.
