Nippon Shorts: Out of Place
Nippon Visions ½
Six short films depict people’s searches for meaning: In BLUE AMBER, a man grapples with his queer identity. In THUNDERGOD, a lightning strike determines a dancer’s fate. In AMARELA, a teenager struggles to find her place between two cultures. In CUT, a man’s unique trait brings about an unexpected twist. In HUMAN FARM, a worker questions his workplace. And in SHIODOKI, death reveals family rifts.
