Sora Ishii

This short film depicts the sense of closure of Japan due to COVID-19 through the episodes of three groups of people. A man picks up shards of glass night after night on a moonlit beach. A mysterious girl lies on the edge of the waves. A policeman at a police box along the beach. A young mother searches aimlessly for her missing daughter, and a man works with her. A young man in a rabbit suit who keeps distributing leaflets to find his missing girlfriend. What exactly is the "girl" that each of these people is searching for...?

Au cœur du Japon, Yusuke convie sa compagne Mizuki à un périple à travers les villages et les rizières. A la rencontre de ceux qu'il a croisés sur sa route depuis ces trois dernières années, depuis ce moment où il s'est noyé en mer, depuis ce jour où il est mort. Pourquoi être revenu ?
