Cadenza poster

Released in 1986, Cadenza is a notable film directed by Masahiro Sugiyama.

What it’s about. A girl finds a puddle of water on the street after the rain. And what does the girl make when she brings back pieces of mirrors scattered on the beach? This work beautifully visualizes the changing privacy of a girl's season as a fairy tale of a mirror and a girl's interaction. The seemingly trite material of a mirror is beautifully handled in a strikingly bold leap of the image, and combined with the sweetness of the girl's gestures, creates a world overflowing with a sense of transparency.
