Lingering Shadows

Sinopsis Film

Arita, Saga prefecture: While working at a pottery studio, Okubo continues to search for clay to use in his own creations. Fumi listens to the townspeople, records them, and draws an "invisible map" of the town. Seitaro rides around town on his fixed-gear bike, carrying a camera. Okubo's sister, Miu, has returned to town after wandering the world. Hands that dig the soil. Ears that listen to voices. Eyes that capture the light. Feet returning. Following the presence of "something that was once there but can no longer return," gazing at the glittering shapes of shadows, the artist depicts the figures of people who are certainly alive in this very moment.
