Dying Germans And Japan

Seattle PI: 'Cherry Blossoms' is strained but heartfelt
German director Doris Dorrie has had a wayward and cheerfully bizarre career...Her latest, "Cherry Blossoms," follows an aging German couple as they come to terms with the end of love and existence...Curiously, the first hour is a virtual remake of "Tokyo Story," the 1953 Yasujiro Ozu classic...the older couple is marginalized and ignored by a younger generation with no time and a basket full of grievances...The wife, Trudi, is a meek hausfrau with an inner passion for Japanese butoh; told her husband has a fatal illness, she chooses not to inform him but instead pushes him out of the nest to see the world before it's too late...The husband, Rudi, takes it into his head to visit Japan, staying with his impatient accountant son in a cramped Tokyo apartment and stepping gingerly into a head-spinning alien culture
...more...

Below, Germans and butoh:

As usual, in Westerner's staging in Japan, Japanese people, especially Japanese men, are described as objects or at the most passer-by and as an excuse to it, weird charactered J-bitch is used as something additional.
I really got bored with this kind of Orientalism.

Take, do you think it could be that some people might get bored by you ideas of what is Occidentalism?
