S11·E10Tokyo's Inokashira Park: Drawn to the Pond

2020-07-3130 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.
