ORDET
Dreaming Murakami: Murakamis ånd lever, Simon Korfix Lindgreen, March 19, 2018

Jeg bevægede mig ud af biografen med en nyfunden lyst til at dykke ned i endnu et af Murakamis universer med min nytilkomne viden om oversættelsens ædle kunst, og så må filmen siges at være vellykket.

KINOSAUR
CPH:DOX 2018: Dreaming Murakami anmeldelse: Forfatteren og oversætteren, Daniel Skov Madsen, March 13, 2018

Dreaming Murakami er en fryd af en dokumentarfilm. En poetisk filmoplevelse der selvsikkert byder på en klar pointe: oversættere er mindst lige så store kunstnere som forfatterne selv.

Nitesh Anjaan løfter portrættet af Mette Holm op til at handle om alle oversættere generelt, og deres uundværlige bidrag til verdenskulturen.

Det kræver altså noget at lave en god filmoplevelse ud af en film, der basalt set handler om ord, men Dreaming Murakami gør det betagende godt.”


ENGLISH

WORDS WITHOUT BORDERS
”Dreaming Murakami” - Bringing Literary Translation to the Screen, Canan Marasligil, March 2, 2018

“Dreaming Murakami almost deciphers something undecipherable, while still leaving much to the viewer to interpret in the same way that many works of literature—including Murakami’s—do.”

THE CULTURE TRIP
’Dreaming Murakami’, How Translation Saved the World, Matthew Janney, May 3, 2018

…beautifully depicts the complex – and necessary – art of literary translation.

The film is surreal, melancholy, inspiring, fantastical – ingredients we so often encounter in Murakami’s works themselves.

BRIEFTAKE
DREAMING MURAKAMI REVIEW, Edward Trapunski, May 8, 2018

 “…reflects his worlds and his imagination […] But moreover, it is a salute to translation and the role it can play in the reality and the dreams that transcend cultures and languages.”
