The relationship with the people and community allowed us access to the daily life of the members of the community gathering around the Mitake Shrine of the South Ikebukuro town. We have got an idea to make a movie to capture the moments shaping their daily life and defining the future hopes.

The short movie, where the non actors express them selves in short verbalized hopes. The collage of those sentences makes for the message from now for tomorrow.

Crafted as an homage to the quiet pulse of community life orbiting Mitake Shrine — the center point where stories, rituals, and everyday rhythms converge in Tokyo.
