Flying in the Blue Hour

The dreamy poetry of Takahata Isao's "The Fairy Tale of Time" (1991) seems to come alive in front of you. A female TV commercial director who is exhausted from her career and troubled by love is still in her thirties and has no idea where her life will go. Accompanied by a candid friend in a car, take a trip back to your hometown to visit relatives. The decayed parents and weird brother seem like strangers; the warm memories of childhood only remain in the withered hands of grandma. The carefreeness of childhood disappears with the setting sun. In the blue hour with the afterglow, the auspicious light of growth flies like a dream; when I meet my free and unrestrained self again, I regain my courage and face the future where the sun is looming.
