Jouhatsu Letters (2024)

Overview

A back-and-forth correspondence between two filmmakers living in Beijing and Tokyo. It began during the COVID-19 pandemic when it was difficult for them to meet in person and continued until 2024. The resulting work, employing various forms such as animation, collage, and 8mm film, develops through quoting each other’s images and sounds, and the result shimmers with the joy of “this is personal cinema!”
