Synopsis
 A horse, from a printed pattern on a blanket, comes alive and dreams of becoming many different things; a unicorn that freely flies in the sky, a snail that moves so slowly, a submarine that runs under the sea, a pencil that is used for composing, a horse-head that is attached to a Mongolian musical instrument, a ballerina who dances for ‘Swan Lake’, and a gentleman who enjoys a glass of wine in a fancy restaurant.

Program Note
 A new work from Arai Chie, director of Slow Train invited in New Currents section back in 2004, is a lovely film that starts with an image and sound of dressmaking, a commonly enjoyed hobby in Japan. A horse, from a printed pattern on a blanket, comes alive and dreams of becoming many different things; a unicorn that freely flies in the sky, a snail that moves so slowly, a submarine that runs under the sea, a pencil that is used for composing, a horse-head that is attached to a Mongolian musical instrument, a ballerina who dances for ‘Swan Lake’, and a gentleman who enjoys a glass of wine in a fancy restaurant. Kafka’s change is no more a nightmare. (Joon Yang KIM)
