This is a film about a medium approaching extinction, an 8mm documentary film about a vanishing 8mm cinema. Blending two genres, the science film and the personal film, and benefiting from the participation of multiple generations of cineastes, it is a reflection upon the original cinematic experience.

8mm short by Mie Kurihara.

A chronic pain that developed about 5 years ago has been clinging to me like noise. How I wish I just opened my eyes one morning and it would be gone.

With an 8mm camera on-hand, the filmmaker travels around mainland Southeast Asia, off the tourist beaten path, without concrete plans. In the process, she makes unexpected friends, and her camera reveals how her journey is the very destination of her documentary.
