Reiwa 4 (2022) 3rd Startup Grant

Business Overview
Using a three-line letter written by Nobuya Mizushita and Natsumi Aoyagi as a motif, filmmakers Motohiro Endo and Natsuka Kusano created a video using the soundtrack of the recitation of the poem and simultaneously screened it on the front and back screens. Aiming at “installation screenings commensurate with the content of the films to be produced, ” as our association calls it, this work explores the possibilities of“ films ” and their screening forms that have not yet been put into practice, taking into account the changes in the way “films ” are viewed (e.g., online viewing) in the recent complex audiovisual environment.
