What it’s about. Neither this shore of this life nor the other shore of the after life. Had I crossed the other shore? It was a world created by light, shadow, people, and scenery captured on a small camera. A single moment captured on a single frame of 8mm film, small enough to fit on a finger, becomes a continuous string of life when played back.I must have held my breath, steadying my handheld camera as if contemplating, as I crossed the other shore. The footage ended with a view of the ocean at dawn in the middle of winter in the northern country. No, it wasn't over. A long time ago, a friend from my film school days told me, while drunk, "You should live your life like you're singing." I was nowhere near able to live that lightly, but after that, I spent several years creating this film. I drifted with a single will, and I think I finally finished it, even though it was unfinished. At the time, I couldn't respond to my friend's words, but even now I don't know if “Move like a Wind" was my answer.
