description This film takes inspiration from the work of Kon Wajiro,- an architect, ethnologist and sociologist who created detailed sketches of everyday life on the streets of Tokyo in the 1920s. Shot in Aomori City, Japan in the depths of winter, Sonotoki captures fleeting movements through the snowy streets as they play out before a static camera.
