Yuya ISHII 石井裕也
映画 夜空はいつでも 最高密度の青色だ
Nippon Visions ½
Two lost souls meet in the city jungle of Tokyo. Mika and Shinji, two quirky loners, slowly approach each other and learn that solitude is easier to bear together. The last few years have rarely brought other Japanese films with such unrestrained formal experiments that capture the life of its disillusioned protagonists in a unique way. A movie like its title – both cryptic and sensual.
