Fuku Nashi


Poster image Fuku Nashi

After several years of absence Yukie returns to Baba's house in search of her identity. In this house of a thousand corners, these two lonely souls meet, but a great chasm separates them. Little by little, between the murmur of the television and the abandoned garden, tongues are loosened and the distance decreases.

Swiss-Japanese filmmaker Juli Sando visits her grandmother in Japan. With a cinematic approach where reality and (auto)fiction merge and blur, the staging unfolds within a confined space. The precise camera work accentuates the distance between the two women, generating a certain degree of tender tension. Gradually, this gap narrows through familiar actions that encourage interaction, and silence gives way to emancipatory dialogue. This poignant personal work explores, with sensitivity, the filmmaker’s complex quest for identity, embodying the importance of reweaving essential family ties that time and distance have eroded.
