The Solitude of Night (2024)

The Solitude of Night
BY LI BAI (~700AD)
TRANSLATED BY SHIGEYOSHI OBATA
It was at a wine party—
I lay in a drowse, knowing it not.
The blown flowers fell and filled my lap.
When I arose, still drunken,
The birds had all gone to their nests,
And there remained but few of my comrades.
I went along the river—alone in the moonlight.

AFUERA (2021)

A No Sunrise Wasted Film

In a not-so-distant future, an off-world syndicate of couriers transports precious and illicit packages via inter-planetary portals. They alone hold the secret to the dust that powers them. Our story takes place in the early morning hours, when a disheveled retired bureaucrat wanders through the unfamiliar streets of Neo Tokyo to hand off a mysterious briefcase.
