Captivating

I am not well versed in the japanese art of ukiyo-e or in Hokusai's life itself, and I don't know how historically accurate the movie is, but disregarding that, I greatly enjoyed the portrayal of Hokusai as a person, whether romanticized or not.

As someone having an "artistic" profession, there is so much I could relate to my own experience. The self-doubt, the jalousy, the constant quest for inspiration. It's something that touches every generation of artists.

I also thoroughly enjoyed the sets and costumes from Edo Japan. The directing was very efficient, with a few inventive scenes that were quite impactful.

The only things I'd criticize were some of the dialogues feeling a little too unnatural as well as a slow pace that might leave some specators behind, even for a movie that's only 90 min long.
