Plot summary

The one-hundred-year-old Fujiya inn stands in the quiet region of Kyoto. Mikoto is standing in front of the Kibune river at the back of the building when she is called back to work. But two minutes later, she finds herself back at the river again. The whole inn seems to be stuck in a time loop!

Besides the comedy, _River_ feels like a more

Besides the comedy, _River_ feels like a more polished version of _Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes_ (_BTITM_) in every aspect. It’s still humorous, but just lacks the audible laughs _BTITM_ had. Even though they’re similar in concept, _River_ has an entire area stuck in this time paradox — much like a Bermuda Triangle for its 96-minute run time. _River_ is smartly written, has a fantastic cast, and is beautifully filmed. **Full review:** https://bit.ly/2imeloop

Wonderful!

A quirky indie film

I'd give this a 7.5, but I'm rounding up for being short and to the point.This is an extremely Japanese movie. The look, the feel, the Shintoism, the soundtrack, everybody working together to solve a problem, the efficient production, and even the sci-fi element felt straight out of some kind of anime. It explores the idea of people in a small area being stuck in a 2 minute time loop, and takes a very light hearted approach on the subject. Even the darker moments are done with a bit of a smile. I particularly enjoyed the development of the main characters facial expressions every time she reset.A joy of an indie film, but be ready to pay attention because it's almost all dialogue.
