The Island Closest To Heaven

Based on Katsura Morimura's 1966 travelogue, this coming - of - age tale is an island retreat to the white sands of New Caledonia. Fulfilling her late father's dream to take her to the island closest to heaven, bookish teen Mari ventures solo to the archipelago's indigo waters in search of this mythic locale. Aka Tengoku ni ichiban chikai shima.
