Sappukei

Overview

A female director from Japan is in Saigon, preparing to shoot a film when her male lead suddenly leaves. She begins to rethink the meaning of the resonances and exchanges she has experienced in the city, leading her to perceive the images in front of her more clearly. Unexpected encounters and planned arrivals — these two almost contradictory concepts oscillate in her mind interchangeably. What she feels is not a remembrance of the past, but the future. The traces Saigon has left on her body form a sculpture without dimensions.
