DUAL CITY
Nippon Visions ½
It’s the year 2034. Japan is divided into a northern and a southern part, with the northern part shattered by conflicts. Living in the north, Yoriko’s sole consolation is to visit the “Memory Club”, where she can access her late daughter’s lifetime information. When Yoriko learns that the memories of deceased individuals are preserved as “information life” in the south, she gains new hope. This neo-futuristic science fiction film had its world premiere at the 10th Osaka Asian Film Festival Indie Forum 2015 (CO2).
