Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman (Saule aveugles, femme endormie)
Synopsis
Inspired by the works of Haruki Murakami. Tokyo, a few days after the 2011 earthquake and tsunami. Kyoko suddenly leaves her husband after watching the images of the earthquake five days in a row. Her helpless husband Komura takes a week off and travels to the North to deliver an enigmatic box to two young women.His office colleague, Katagiri, a modest, unsightly and solitary collector, goes home one evening and finds himself face to face with a frog two metres high asking for help to save Tokyo from another imminent earthquake.Through memories, dreams and fantasies, Kyoko, Komura and Katagiri, influenced by their visions of the earthquake – in the form of evil willows, a giant earthworm, a secret wish, a mysterious box and a dark and endless corridor – are trying to reconnect with themselves.
The screenings of this film are also part of the programme of the Mois de la Francophonie de l’Institut Français du Luxembourg.
