Ulysses

During the process of re-reading all the diaries of the author's childhood, a long forgotten silhouette suddenly emerges out of an old memory. The artist returns to the scene of the memory to search for evidence of her existence. The entire film is rendered by computer software and is filmed in one shot from beginning to end, like a roamer roams about through a dream, where dreamland and one’s memories interweave in fabrication and deviation. This film is an overture from the project Corner of the Park, continuing the work which was done years ago. The project sets out to form a complex labyrinth-style network of narratives regarding memory.

Two Men

The story of Two Men takes place in a highly theatricalized setting, namely an arched iron cage. Two men fall in love with each other in an all-male world. As their relationship develops, however, it is no longer their own personal matter, but rather a jarring dissonance in this masculine world. The minorities express their needs, but their expression seems so powerless and fragile in comparison with the society at large. Nevertheless, the yearning for ideals in their tender souls never fades.

Look Behind!

Shooting began with pointing the camera at the sunset seen through the window at home, and continued until all the 8mm film I had was used up. The sound is recorded on a magnetic material coated on the film at the same time as shooting, and the sound on the cassette tape is mixed and played back at the time of screening. Sometimes a projectionist calls on the audience. This is a ritual that transforms the original shape and brings the dismantled "movie" back to the theater. (Kenji Murakami)
