He decides to move back to his old hometown with his wife to look for work and start over. He answers a classified ad entitled 'Departures' thinking it is an advertisement for a travel agency. He discovers that the job is actually for a 'Nokanshi' or 'encoffineer,' a funeral professional who prepares deceased bodies for burial and entry into the next life. While his wife and others despise the job, Daigo takes a certain pride in his work and begins to perfect the art, acting as a gentle gatekeeper between life and death, between the departed and the family of the departed. 521 8 MPAA rating: PG-13; for some thematic elements. 538 DVD, region 1, widescreen (1.85:1); Dolby Digital 5.1 surround. 546 Japanese dialogue, English subtitles. 586 Academy Award winner, 2008: Best foreign language film. 650 0 Cellists|zJapan|vDrama|vVideodiscs. 650 0 Advertising, Classified|zJapan|vDrama|vVideodiscs. 650 0 Undertakers and undertaking|zJapan|vDrama|vVideodiscs. 650 0 Migration, Internal|zJapan|vDrama|vVideodiscs. 650 0 Married people|zJapan|vDrama|vVideodiscs. 650 0 DVDs. 655 0 Motion pictures, Japanese. 655 7 Feature films|zJapan.|2lcgft 690 FOREIGN FILMS (JAPANESE), VIDEODISCS. 690 ACADEMY AWARD WINNERS, 2008. 700 1 Nakazawa, Toshiaki. 700 1 Watai, Toshihisa. 700 1 Koyama, Kundo. 700 1 Takita, Yōjirō,|d1955- 700 1 Motoki, Masahiro,|d1965- 700 1 Hirosue, Ryöko,|d1980- 700 1 Yamazaki, Tsutomu,|d1936- 700 1 Yo, Kimiko. 700 1 Sugimoto, Tetta. 700 1 Yoshiyuki, Kazuko,|d1935- 700 1 Sasano, T.|q(Takashi) 700 1 Hisaishi, Jō,|d1950- 710 2 Regent (Firm) 710 2 Here Media (Firm) 710 2 Departures Film Partners. 710 2 E1 Entertainment (Firm) 730 0 Departures (Motion picture : 2008)
