Like a Heavenly Edge 2024

The dialogueless journey of a carjacker, his young lover and the doll she created, in a world made of city ruins, blue dawns and red dusks. The film material was originally shot in 1998 on 8mm and later blown up to 16mm. Ever since, as the colour dyes faded and the years passed, the film hadn't been edited into its final form. Almost 30 years later, "Like a Heavenly Edge" was screened publicly for the first time at LA CAMERA in Shimokitazawa.
