Close But Distant

ちかくてとおい

Nippon Visions   ½ 

The town of Otsuchi in Iwate Prefecture suffered massive damage in the March 2011 tsunami. Documenting the reconstruction of his home town, Yui OKUBO seeks to preserve a piece of memory for his niece, who has no experience of her own of what the town looked like before its transformation.
