Synopsis

Biwas is a spiral narration around a misunderstanding with some loquat-looking fruits found one night with a friend near a Sapporo highway. Using a super8 reel shot entirely frame-by-frame, this one-minute video attempts to create a visual vocabulary that seems to help give sense to the meaningless.
