2025日本纪录片·短片
导演：Sybilla Patrizia
Haunted by an unforgettable blue nuance, dyer Watanabe devotes his life to recreating Japan’s perfect indigo. Fate leads him to Kato, a colour blind artisan at a crossroads. Their quest unveils the deeply personal story behind Japan’s legendary colour, revealing the emotional and physical transformations that bring this shade to life. Traditional yet modern, specific yet universal, authentically Japanese yet globally resonant — Sybilla Patrizia’s background in photography lends a visual style that is both delicate and precise, while her choice of an unusual subject, combined with her captivating narrative style, creates a uniquely engaging work.
