Plot
A live action footage of a smiling bespectacled presumably Western tourist set against the familiar cadence of an accelerating train revving up as it leaves the station sets the mesmerizing tone for the films abstract panoramic survey of an Ozuesque Japanese landscape of electrical power lines passing trains railroad tracks and the gentle slope of obliquely peaked uniform rooflines as Breer distills the essential geometry of Mount Fuji into a collage of acute angles and converging and bifurcating lines
