Every now and then, however, we experience moments that break through, stimulating our senses to fill our worlds with color and emotion. It is these moments that Jimmy Vi (Director), Toshihiko Kizu (Director of Photography), and Kishin Oyama (Producer) set out to capture in their short film "The Circle", produced by Toboggan Inc.
“The Circle” is an award winning unique project using just one focal length – the ZEISS Supreme Prime 15mm. Directed by Jimmy Vi and shot by DP Toshihiko Kizu, the story is themed on four characters’ lives, each stuck in their routine until a sudden urge of inspiration strikes, compelling them to break free from their “circle.”
