Solo

With the Tsunami that hit Japan in 2011 as a backdrop, Yonezawa explores the relationship between the dead and the living in ?Solo?. Wandering on a beach filled with rubble, the nameless protagonist of the film, perhaps representing the eternal soul of the Japanese people, is reliving the tragedy of the catastrophe, remembering the horror and the people who lost their lives. It is a meditation on the relationship between death and memory; how the people who have passed away still remain inside all of us – they are alive as long as they are remembered.
