Island of no memories

Danmarkspremiere

For Island of no memories, Kaori was inspired by how we all try to escape our daily obligations in different ways. She says, "As I grew up in the city of Tokyo watching so many businessmen getting drunk at night and throwing themselves on the street, screaming or sleeping, I began to think that they need these moments of letting themselves go in order to forget their daily obligations, which are totally the opposite." The glaring difference between these composed men with their suits during the day and their embrace of complete hedonism in the evening inspired Kaori to create a story of a man who wants to forget as a way of releasing himself from his daily reality.
