Tsuneo Nakai

This work consists of a fixed shot capturing the natural phenomenon of light flowing in from beyond the horizon, which Nakai encountered at a beach when shooting Alchemy. The sound consists of ambient noise from the surrounding environment. “This is minimal cinema focusing on the phenomenon of light passing over the sea, which I happened to encounter on the beach when I was filming Alchemy.” (Tsuneo Nakai)
