Song of a Dying Summer (逝く夏の歌) – Film Screening
Milwaukee Premiere!
Natsu spends a last summer alongside his friends, Aki, Fuyu and Haru, while writing a stage play to commemorate their time together. Shot entirely on 8mm film, Kohei Sengen’s feature-length debut, with its grainy images steeped in muted colors, creates an almost dreamlike atmosphere, conveying the melancholy of growing up – and growing apart.
(Kohei Sengen, Japan, Japanese w/Eng sub, 71 min, 2022, Digital)
