Short Shorts Film Festival & Asia 2010
Juries Comment Let's Travel! Project
Considering that the aims & needs of each person when travelling are different and that there is a unique characteristic to each region or area, as juror, I realized how difficult it is to judge the films based on the theme of this competition, "to show the appeal & allure of the various regions of Japan."
The compilation of still photographs is very effective in creating a unique world imagined by a flood of memories. This short film was selected because through the discoveries and adventures of the lead character, the charm & appeal of Japan from the north to the south is firmly conveyed to the viewer.
The fascinating depiction of well-worn, old materials at a construction site left quite an impression. The atmosphere created by the carefully selected location matches perfectly with the fantasy of the story. This film should be selected for an award.
