Anrakuto

Anrakuto follows the voice of a young woman who is interviewed about her relationship to a man named Hiroshi, a Korean immigrant who was taken into her household by her mother during her teenage years, unsettling the dynamic of the family. These intimate recollections are paired with landscape shots and ambiguous re-enactments by a cast of actors. The film was screened at Yebisu International Festival for Art & Alternative Visions 2015, the Un Certain Regard section at TAMA CINEMA FORUM 2012, and Cine Drive independent film festival in Osaka (2012), where it won the Grand Prize.
