Brand New Landscape Miharashi Sedai
Synopsis
Set against the backdrop of an ever-changing Tokyo, Brand New Landscape is an assured, complex debut inflected with an ingenious injection of the surreal. Reeling after the death of their mother and long estranged from their father, twentysomething siblings Ren and Emi are left to their own devices. Making ends meet delivering flowers, Ren spends his days carrying the weight of his mother’s absence and simmering in anger over his father’s silence. Meanwhile, Emi is about to marry and put the past behind her. When an urban development project compels their father to return to the city, the siblings are forced to reckon with their painful family history as they are offered one last chance at reconciliation.
Featuring a collection of stunning performances and beautifully composed images, the film draws parallels between Tokyo’s shifting landscape and the family’s tumultuous path toward reunion. Filmmaker Yuiga Danzuka crafts a mesmerizing reflection on the price of progress and change at scales both large and small.
