Like Michael Dubo de Wit's remarkable
film that draws upon the pastel naturalism of Hayao Miyazaki's Studio
Ghibli for what might be their best
film in a line of classics, Del Mar's music is the equivalent of those soft brushstrokes
on a
big screen canvas of visual poetry, a score that profoundly captures a life at first seemingly lost at sea, only to soar under, and above it though its graceful music that touches the silent tides of nature's life force.
