    • Synopsis
    • Somewhere and sometime. People in this town are having a war against the town on the opposite side of the river. As this war continues for so long, nobody knows what they are fighting for... Tsuyuki, a soldier at the downstream flights from 9 am to 5 pm and repeats the same routine every day. One day, Tsuyuki is transferred to a music band and starts to play music looking at the other side of the river...
      The story is told like a fairy tale but with bizarre black humor. Ikeda’s theater-like unique style of storytelling expands to show us the irony of the contemporary world we are living in.
