searching
I have been really into watching documentaries lately. Sometimes late into the wee hours of the morning.
The one documentary that really resonated with me would be this one: The Great Happiness Space, Tale of an Osaka Love Thief. It's actually a documentary about the lives of Japanese Hosts in the ever-changing city social-scape of Japan.
I think the documentary really did well in capturing the loneliness of human beings. The crazy search for love, the buying of dreams. Money can buy love(?) Maybe, for as long as you want to dream.
Truly fascinating, makes me see people holding such career positions in a different light. Possibly a more humane one.
Do take time to watch it if you can!
