(Lettres à mon ami Yohei Yamakado depuis son pays natal)

Content: Yohei Yamakado has not returned to his native Japan for eight years; his friend Olivier Cheval therefore embarks on an exploration of the land of the Rising Sun, evoking his friend’s memories, almost in a re-enactement of his friend’s life by proxy. Cheval travels, moving from Tokyo to Kyoto, from Kobe to Lake Towada, and in the meantime he juggles, in an equally exploratory way, between childhood and memory, between exile and friendship, making the invisible tangible.
