Poster pemenang penghargaan Film Berbahasa Asing Terbaik Oscar tahun 2008 ini tampil cool dan natural. "Departures" adalah film berbahasa Jepang yang tidak disangka2 berhasil merebut penghargaan bergengsi tersebut setelah sebelumnya banyak orang yang menjagokan animasi asal Israel berjudul "Waltz With Bazir" yang akan keluar sebagai pemenang.
Berlatar belakang gunung Fuji, sang tokoh utama tampak duduk dengan pose cool bersama cello-nya. Poster ini tampil dengan kesan minimalis namun sangat kuat karakternya berkat irama natural yang dihadirkannya.
Sinopsis "Departures" (in Englis):
Daigo Kobayashi (Masahiro Motoki) is a devoted cellist in an orchestra that has just been dissolved and now finds himself without a job. Daigo decides to move back to his old hometown with his wife to look for work and start over. He answers a classified ad entitled "Departures" thinking it is an advertisement for a travel agency only to discover that the job is actually for a "Nokanshi" or "encoffineer," a funeral professional who prepares deceased bodies for burial and entry into the next life. While his wife and others despise the job, Daigo takes a certain pride in his work and begins to perfect the art of "Nokanshi," acting as a gentle gatekeeper between life and death, between the departed and the family of the departed. The film follows his profound and sometimes comical journey with death as he uncovers the wonder, joy and meaning of life and living. (IMDB)
