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.

Experimental film by Kenji Onishi.

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.
