The Nanjing premiere of "Shakuhachi: One Life". Between the short bamboos, you can get a glimpse of life. One blow and one press, one sound for a lifetime. The shakuhachi was originally a traditional Chinese musical instrument. It was introduced to Japan during the Tang and Song Dynasties. Unexpectedly, the shakuhachi flourished in Japan but has declined in China. The film contains many famous Shakuhachi songs and is highly recommended to be watched in the Dolby Hall. This is not only a cultural baptism, but also an auditory journey. Very pure and cleansing.

As a music documentary, the whole viewing process is quite enjoyable. The greatest significance of this film is to bring back the shakuhachi, so that more Chinese people can understand and even fall in love with the shakuhachi, and pass it on. The panoramic sound effect is excellent, making up for many shortcomings of the film itself. Even if the content is aside, the melody of the Shakuhachi makes this documentary quite sincere. It satisfies all the points that can arouse my liking, Japanese style music, mourning, ingenuity, inheritance, and the origin of Chinese and Japanese culture.

One foot eight, one world, one life. This is a very successful documentary that introduces this special medium and culture to a wider audience. Anyway, I really want to hear a live performance. The Shakuhachi has traveled through thousands of years, traveling across countries, nationalities, borders, and eras, and has crossed countless people, but very few people know about it. The narrations in the film convey the perseverance and intoxication of Shakuhachi inheritors, educators, researchers, producers, performers, learners, and appreciators. Love pervades here, with a gentle but strong appeal.

The past and present life of the shakuhachi is basically explained in 90 minutes. Just like the elk, it is native to China. It became extinct due to various reasons. Later, it could only be introduced from outside the region if it wanted to be restored. The highest state of the shakuhachi in the film is that of the player who plays the shakuhachi, and becomes one with the shakuhachi. The soul of the lover who listens to the shakuhachi meets the shakuhachi sound and meets the soul of the ancient sound. Although they have different lives, they all believe that they have a higher realm, and the shakuhachi is the "artifact" that helps them transcend. Whatever you want to do, don't waver, do it firmly.

I have always believed that documentaries should record some things in the world that are not known to everyone, even if they are destined to be a niche. As a "music documentary" about the musical instrument "Shakuhachi", this film is beautifully presented in terms of music. You can deeply feel the unique and moving timbre of "Shakuhachi" and how it is made as an instrument. , all told very interestingly, and most of the audience, like me, probably only learned about such an instrument after watching this documentary, and the subject matter was well explored.

I have always felt that traditional culture should not be aloof, but should have a low profile and be integrated into people's daily life. Otherwise, how can anyone appreciate it and how can it survive. The timbre and expressiveness of the shakuhachi can easily make people cry if they are in a certain state of mind. So I understand very well what the director said after the screening: I accidentally heard it while driving, and even before I knew what instrument it was, I burst into tears.

I feel like crying countless times, remembering the vibration I heard for the first time many years ago. Shakuhachi is the passage connecting this shore and the other shore. What is contained in the short bamboo tube is The human spirit is the universe and everything in the world. The Japanese have a profound worldview and musical outlook, and they have injected a lot of thinking about impermanence and life into Shakuhachi. This movie is thought provoking. Fortunately, art has no national boundaries, but deep down we still feel sorry for ourselves.

"Shakuhachi? One Lifetime" is the sea, the wind, the breath, the bamboo forest, the killing spear, and the low sobs. This is a movie that is listened to with ears, composed of things. As for people, Shakuhachi has bound some people's lives to it. In inheritance, production, promotion, or learning, different Shakuhachi people have different lives, but they have the same soul** *Ming. One sound lasts a lifetime; those who love and can reproduce the spirit of this ancient musical instrument are those with bright eyes and pure hearts.

This film allows us to enjoy the beautiful music played by the Shakuhachi from beginning to end. It is difficult not to be moved and fall in love with the Shakuhachi as an instrument. The heart is struck again and again, the bamboo pipe is so beautiful that it is indescribable.

The significance of Shakuhachi music is not just the beautiful timbre or the igniting atmosphere. Whether it is used as a religious song in classical music or as an anime song in pop rock, the complementation of people and instruments can shock the listener's soul.
