On the collinear and reflected on the water

Overview

The filmmaker talks about what she sees while she's staring at the projected image of a face of the caged Emu (bird), which is one of a filmmaker's own archive shot by herself at the zoo. In one moment, there's a drop of tear falls from the eye of emu. Even if this one drop of tear has been merely a physiological phenomena to removing dust from its eye, yet the tear touches human mind. The eye of Emu and the tear are not only to make us perceive a human figure in the reflection, but it shows something farther beyond.

Directed by Rei Hayama
