INORI

In a small mountain village in Nara Prefecture, Japan, young people have migrated to the cities, and only the older generations remain. They continue their lives, with courageous perspectives on the past and the future. In the silence of a community that is heading for their demise, questions arise about the meaning and passage of time.
