Love story that shows the dreams and reality of young people who are psychologically unstable and trackless in Tokyo after the earthquake.
A female English teacher begins to worry about the relationship with her boyfriend, a dancer in rehabilitation, but without ever facing each other or exchanging a word, the two gradually drift apart. 

This project began at the end of 2011, while the shock of the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred on March 11, was still fresh. The film was directed with a limited plot and improvisation, like a documentary.

Director's Commentary
The Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred on March 11, 2011, caused us Japanese to destruct of our daily lives.
The motivation for making this film was to document that one year later, on March 11, 2012.
Until the earthquake and tsunami, the deception known as the "safety myth" was rampant in Japan, but this belief was shaken greatly when we witnessed the lie that "nuclear power is safe."
The unstable style of the film, in which we don't know where we're heading, reflects the social situation and state of mind of the people at the time.
In particular, lead actor HAYAKAWA Tomoko shared with me the courage to forge ahead on a pathless path, and this film would not have been possible without her.
More than 10 years have passed since then, and we have now experienced the COVID-19 pandemic, and now, Japan is facing the threat of various infrastructure collapses, including land subsidence.
Amidst this sense of uncertainty, I was once again feeling the significance of seeing "tokyo/lovers" when I learned of the existence of this wonderful film festival.
I'm very interested to see how the film will be received in Croatia, where I've always had a strong interest.
I hope that it will lead to mutual understanding of cultures through art.
