The Letter

DirectorKatsutoshi Sabu

1991
5 min
Drama

"I sobbed today..." This bizarre monologue is followed by a dialogue with a unique tempo. Then, fragments of daily life are written on the screen in an unhurried manner. When the dialogue and the screen are fused together, there is an exquisite sense of mismatch, and a warm and heart-warming world begins to unfold on the screen. The film is a humorous essay in the form of a letter to a lover, telling the story of an ordinary day, but with a descriptive power that is anything but ordinary.
