LEFT HANDS STORY

1992 · 29m

A story of two couples that begins in a watch shop. Ishikawa, a cook, and Iwamoto, a waitress, work in a spaghetti house. During a break on an empty embankment, the two have a rather absent-minded conversation. Iwamoto, is there anything you want? 'Well, a hoover...' Meanwhile, Shinichi and Chika are about to rob a bank. Shinichi and Chika are about to rob a bank, and they take a Polaroid photo of themselves for what might be the last time. Chika is worried: "Will I be able to take a bath every day in prison? Their stories proceed in parallel, as they spend the same time in different places. The only thing they have in common is that they both give watches as gifts. The only thing they have in common is that they both give a watch as a gift, a gift that both couples will never forget. One is soft pastel, the other a harsh primary colour. The artist's sensitivity in choosing the colours to suit the story conveys the pure emotions of the lovers of the 1990s in a warm atmosphere.
