S11·E10 – Tokyo's Inokashira Park: Drawn to the Pond
2020-07-31 • 30 min
The setting is Tokyo's Inokashira Park. By the end of June, one month after the state of emergency was lifted, people began to return to the park, surrounded by a large pond and lush greenery. Friends rejoicing in their long-awaited reunion. A comedy duo continuing their rehearsals toward their dreams. A salaryman sitting on a bench for hours to relieve the fatigue of self-restraint. What kind of people come to the park, and what thoughts do they carry? Over three days, I walked around the pond, listening to the voices of the people I encountered.
