Dear Moon

Directed by Akiyoshi Imazeki

With Sora Ishii

This short film depicts the sense of closure of Japan due to COVID-19 through the episodes of three groups of people. A man picks up shards of glass night after night on a moonlit beach. A mysterious girl lies on the edge of the waves. A policeman at a police box along the beach. A young mother searches aimlessly for her missing daughter, and a man works with her. A young man in a rabbit suit who keeps distributing leaflets to find his missing girlfriend. What exactly is the "girl" that each of these people is searching for...?
