This week we’re excited to present a conversation with director Yui Kiyohara, whose new film, Remembering Every Night was a 2023 New Directors/New Films selection that is now playing at Film at Lincoln Center along with the filmmaker’s first feature, Our House. And, if you purchase a ticket to one Yui Kiyohara film, receive a ticket to the other free! A film that moves on the rhythms of a gentle breeze, Yui Kiyohara’s follow-up to her acclaimed Our House is an evocatively quotidian film that’s as mysterious and beautiful as everyday life itself. Kiyohara immerses viewers in the quiet pursuits of several women, including a wandering university student, a helpful neighborhood meter reader, and a middle-aged gentle soul seeking employment but finding herself agreeably lost instead. Their paths converge or just miss one another over the course of a single sunny afternoon, captured by Kiyohara with calming long takes and the occasional drifting camera that seems to have a perspective all its own. Remembering Every Night is a treasure of unconventional filmmaking that abounds with simple pleasures, reminding the viewer of the fragility of time, happiness, and love.
