Inujima Inuko

About This Movie

Inujima Inuko captures the quiet essence of a small island through the eyes of Seisa. The film has this gentle, almost meditative pacing that allows you to soak in the beauty of Inujima, while the themes of memory and connection unfold subtly. The way Seisa interacts with both her surroundings and the woman in Canada adds layers to her character. You can really feel the isolation and yearning for connection, which is quite poignant. The practical effects are minimal, yet they enhance the natural beauty of the island, making it almost a character in its own right. Performances are understated but effective, drawing you into Seisa's journey. There's a distinct charm here, reflective of the quiet lives lived on remote islands.
