In a near future Los Angeles, drought has worsened and the water supply is cut off. Masami Kawai’s visionary and atmospheric lo-fi sci-fi depicts an elder immigrant woman braving the sweltering heat and policed streets to procure water for herself and her disabled neighbor.

Streaming in the U.S. from August 20-September 2 as part of JAPAN CUTS: Festival of New Japanese Film 2021
