Matthew A @iWupp 8h They did such a great job of making this entire film feel ethereal. The combination of the black and white image, flowing fabrics and use of smoke create an unworldly atmosphere. Specifically the way they shot the interior of that house was stunning. Using double exposure they overlayed the interior shot over a moving shot through the bamboo forest. It creates both a haunting yet beautiful image. It gives the impression that this building doesn't exist within reality, it's just floating through space, time and the bamboo forest. Another aspect of the filmmaking I love here is the use of the flowing fabrics. Often times there will be flowing fabrics all about, either behind or even in front of characters. Doing so creates layers to the image similarly to the layers of a bamboo forest. Speaking of layers, this film incorporates a ton of double exposed shots and they all look phenomenal and add to the ghostly atmosphere.

Many of the scenes are aesthetically lovely--great cinematography. Out of the ordinary---it will refresh your eyes.
