INSIDER'S PICK
”What is the power of this film? I can't believe that she made this as an independent film, as her thesis film. To all the film lovers in the world, I hope you experience Senami’s film and remember the director’s name. You won't regret it!!"

NOTE FROM FILMMAKER
All I can say now is that people are a dying culture. And it is absolutely dying. Should we notice it or not? While working on this film, I suddenly found myself thinking a lot about which was happier. I think it is happier not to notice it. But I can never be such a person. I hope that you will take a moment to think about such a thing for which there is no answer.
This is a film that you can certainly sense things that are important, things that can only be seen now, and what we were able to capture because of us. I hope you will enjoy the film.
