The Koumiko Mystery (1967) DVD-R
Starring na
Paul Page
Directed by Chris Marker
Print: Color
Runtime: 54 min.
Genre: documentary
Marker studies a young Japanese woman, wandering about Tokyo during the 1964 Olympic games,
asking her questions about how she feels about herself and the world.
Koumiko comments vaguely on her feelings of separation from people and animals, of drifting with the tide of an anxious world.
Amid the transience of a futuristic World’s Fair-like atmosphere,
Marker may exoticize Koumiko’s ancient beauty but the “mystery” of the film’s title is, quite simply, the mystery of individuality.
