Write a short summary of what happens in the film

It had been 10 years since the Great Earthquake struck Japan in 2011. The disaster area has been gradually recovering, although not yet completed. It was necessary to record the recovering cityscape of the disaster area. The cityscape before, immediately after, and 10 years after the earthquake respectively. It was important from the viewpoint of preserving the damage caused by the earthquake, researching the disaster, and preserving the culture. So, we planned to save it as music by putting together the cityscapes before, immediately after, and 10 years after the earthquake at the fixed point. Then, we put musical notes along the cityscape.

Please tell us how the brand purpose inspired the work

It has been 10 years since the great earthquake that caused a lot of damage. Iwate Nippo, a local newspaper in Iwate, has a motivation to records everything in Iwate and pass it to the future. Therefore, they are driven to record the ever-changing cityscape after the earthquake in the course of the reconstruction.
