The Drop of Stone (1997)

Directed by Hiroyuki Sekine

· 1h 00m

A cinepoetry about the demolition of University of Tokyo’s student residence (known as “Komaba-ryo” [駒場寮]) after it was closed down. In this film, Sekine metaphorically depicts the record of the demolition as “passage of time” through some images (many of which evoke “stream”) and the phantom. As a side note, the phantom is played by experimental filmmaker Erice Matsui [松井エリセ]. She ran an art gallery in the place and held independent screenings called “Theatre Moon” [テアトル・ムーン].
