Mizu no naka no hachigatsu

Dealing with cosmic (in)significance, aliens and ecological concerns, August in the Water captures the essence of a astronomically pure mood using only nebulous visuals present in reality, transcending the universe' beauty of what exists in nature. Numerous motifs and philosophical questions are also used: extraterrestrials, the origin of humans or ancient, mystically inscribed stones. With a plot bursting with enigmatic, imaginative and sometimes ludicrous ideas augmented by the magical realism atmosphere.
