Reviews:

A haunting existentialist parable.
Hiroshi Teshigahara’s “Woman in the Dunes” is truly a unique movie. It’s about an entomologist who goes on a holiday, only to find himself trapped in huge sand pit with a woman. The woman has no will to get out of the sand (it’s been “broken”–like that of a stable horse–no doubt), but he refuses to live a “meaningless” life in the sand pit (like the woman). He tries to get out, but it’s all in vain: the wall of sand is an impenetrable barrier between him and his “freedom.” And so the story goes. The sand pit, I guess, is a metaphor for humanity’s existentialist plight. Like the mythological Sisyphus, who was condemned for eternity to roll a rock to the top of a hill only to have it roll back down again, the two characters in this film dig sand out of their pit–but the sand keeps coming back….which raises the question: If life is meaningless–as Satre and Camus have said–what will we do? Do we keep digging? Do we opt for suicide instead? Or what? This is one of those films that haunt you after you see it; you’ll keep thinking of it during subsequent days and even weeks. It is also distinguished by its luscious and crisp black and white deep focus photography. “The Woman in the Dunes” is (sadly) a far too little-known cinematic treasure that is thought-provoking, beautiful, erotic, and even eerie. Once you see it, you won’t soon forget it.
Review By: seandchoi
A brilliant tale of the changing Japan
I get more and more impressed with the classics of Japanese cinema and this is def a highlight. Mesmerizing and artsy it portrays a etymologist and ‘the woman of the dunes’ trapped in sand. The trap itself obviously symbolizes the trap a certain desert beetle digs to lie in the midst of it waiting for prey which cannot help but sliding into it. Its the same for him, he cant climb the sand walls, the more he struggles the more the sand runs a little like the woman who in fear of the outside continues her sisyfosan existence.

The psychology between the two is excellently depicted. The tension is intensified trough images of sweaty skin and running sand. The cinematographer is a master in filming this. Lots of black. Editing also is sharp and very well done. Sound is minimal and fits the images’ bleak and deserted dunes.

Much can be said about this movie, it is one for repeated viewings for sure.
