"It’s been several years since we started preparations in the U.S. with a few friends and no real game plan. A lot has happened in the world since then, and while the project has hit some roadblocks, that process itself was fitting for this film — a story about a family living in New York, both fragile and strong, disturbing and beautiful. Japanese and American crew worked hand in hand, pushing each other forward. The cast, centered around Nishijima-san and Lun-Mei-san, tackled a multilingual script with persistence and skill — in English, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, and even sign language. Please look forward to this amazing film."
