John Gunst Cold Fever

Cold Fever

-Watching this strange film, I wondered to myself what I would take out of it. This movie starts with a young, seemingly successful Japanese man giving up his vacation to Hawaii to instead go to Iceland and perform the ceremonial rites for his parents, who past away some years ago. What ensues is a plethora of odd encounters resulting in an overly dramatic moral shift for the young businessman. I don’t want to spend this blog summarizes what we just watched but I didn’t really know what all I could write about from this movie, but upon thinking reflectively, the main point that I came away with was that sometimes, when you put aside your personal wishes and do what it is you need to, instead of what you want to, the outcome and the experiences you gain can and often are, much more beneficial to you as a whole.
