Two men, Tera and Jin, live deep in the countryside of Japan, in a house built of sustainable materials—an autonomous structure that doesn’t rely on non-renewable energy. Tera is a local, used to living in the wild. Jin is an intellectual who moved from the city and struggles to keep up. Cerebrally, Jin knows that this is the lifestyle he wants but can he live it? Perhaps none of it matters in nature, in poetry and in the rain. A meditation on our present and future shot on 16mm b&w film.
