Mai, an artist, and Rintaro, a bicycle builder. The two weave through their city on bicycles. A river under an overpass, the ivy in a ditch, the demolition of state housing . . . . The film follows the couple as they move about, taking pictures of whatever catches their eye. Mai believes that even these small stories from everyday encounters constitute the culture of a city and the film documents Mai’s process of incorporating these stories into her work. The film was produced as part of the “Cultural Narrative of a City” project, which strives to present the city Minato in all its delicate yet vibrant cultural diversity.
Reviews
Wow! Such a good movie.
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
