Summary

A cold landscape spreads across the reclaimed land. A road that stretches in a straight line. Hasegawa wanders into this place while his girlfriend, Yoko, is moving. However, the conversation between the two is awkward and doesn't mesh well. By chance, Hasegawa is left alone in this empty landscape. He starts playing with the bouncing ball. This work expresses the inability to communicate well and the feeling of loneliness through a cinematic space created by the contrast between the "stillness" of the landscape and the "motion" of a rolling ball. The sight of a single person standing alone in a desolate landscape has an almost existentialist feel to it.
