Hoji Tsuchiya, Saigo no Shudan (muffin discs)
2024, Japan, 3'28''

A grand banquet attended by the gods was being held at a beachside hotel in a space. At that time, the earth's environment was in ruins due to the development of civilization. The man who saved the turtle builds a rocket to aim for space, but... A work inspired by the Japanese folktale Urashima Taro. Music video for SAKANAMON.

V hotelu ob obali, nekje v prostoru in času, je potekal veliki banket, ki so se ga udeležili bogovi. Zemljino okolje je bilo takrat razdejano zaradi razvoja civilizacije. Moški, ki je rešil želvo, gradi raketo z namenom, da bi odšel v vesolje, vendar ... Navdihnjeno po japonski ljudski pravljici Urashima Taro. Videospot za skupino SAKANAMON.
