Five Dedicated to Ozu

Five Dedicated to Ozu (2003)

Finding himself in a house in the north of Iran by the Caspian Sea, the director picked up his handheld DV camera and began filming the seemingly anodyne events happening on the 500 metres of beach in front of his house—a piece of wood toyed with by the waves, people walking by the sea, indistinct shapes on a wintry beach or noisy ducks.

Filming locations

The original 2004 Cannes page states: "Finding himself in a house in the north of Iran by the Caspian Sea, the director picked up his handheld DV camera and began filming the seemingly anodyne events happening on the 500 metres of beach in front of his house".

A 2005 book The Cinema of Abbas Kiarostami by Alberto Elena also states that the film was made "[while the director was] staying on the shores of the Caspian Sea in the summer of 2002."

Two 2007 books state that four of the sequences are from the Caspian, except for the second which is from Spain.

According to IMDb, one filming location was the San Lorenzo Beach in Gijón, Asturias, Spain.
