Short Films about Friendship

March is a month of both new encounters and goodbyes in Japan. Just in time for this bittersweet season, a series of short films related to kizuna, or bonds, will be screened at Brillia Shortshorts Theatre in Yokohama. Works include Koyuki's Wondering Football, a touching story of a girl who recreated her father's football after the earthquake of 2011, and the German animation Lokomochine about two scientists who invent a machine that bring books to life.
