Koko ni Aru Dake no Kioku wo Kemuri ni Karamasete

Synopsis

Not so long ago, Seika dormitory did indeed exist. People from various countries lived there to avoid conflicts, but the building burned down. Imai, an ordinary young man living a lazy life, is asked by an old homeless man named Korai to live in the Seika dormitory building. What he sees there is life itself. Mr. Korai calls it their "hometown," a place where people are born and raised. However, it doesn't necessarily have to be the place where one was actually born and raised. The contemporary artist, Arata Imai, depicts "memories of life" that existed there, using the housing complex that once existed but was destroyed by fire as the central motif.
