Takeshi Kushida's debut, “Woman of the Photographs” was one of the best films of 2020. Three years later, the director returns with “My Mother's Eyes” , a film that also deals with the concept of ‘seeing', but on a whole different level.
My Mother's Eyes is screening at Skip City International D-Cinema Festival
Hitomi and her daughter Eri are cellists. The two seem to have a rather loving relationship, to the point of codependency on occasion. As the latter, however, seems to become more rebellious, a certain level of tension arises between them. One fateful night, after a magnificent duet at Eri's school concert, they are involved in a major car accident (?), from which they emerge badly injured. Hitomi loses her eyesight and Eri is paralyzed from the neck down. In her desperation, Hitomi stumbles upon a new, still experimental contact lens device invented by Dr. Tomio Miike, which will restore her vision,...

Conceptual artist Joan Fontcuberta once said “photography is a tool to negotiate our idea of reality.” He and other artists like him have made it their life’s work to challenge the accuracy of their medium and toy with the viewer’s impression. Someone such as Kai (Hideki Nagai), however, prefers veracity over falsity. The rigid character in Takeshi Kushida’s Woman of the Photographs (Shashin no on’na) has spent his career helping clients not only deceive others but also themselves. It is only when Kai meets an unusual woman does his own perception begin to change.
Woman of the Photographs is a movie its director self-described as “romance horror.” That description might immediately bring up memories of something like Audition, but Kushida’s first feature hasn’t a sinister bone in its entire body. Nevertheless, it is equally perplexing and layered, and sometimes the imagery can be alarming.
