OUR PRECIOUS AUTUMN

Reclaiming the Passion of Art

For manga artist Ami, the demanding rhythm of her work has become a suffocating cycle of burnout and overwork. After several sleep-deprived nights, she collapses upon returning home and awakens in a surreal dreamscape. Here, three significant encounters unfold, each a subtle yet profound catalyst guiding her towards the realization that her life demands a fundamental shift.

The film is an emotional dive into the struggles of an artist, written by a collaborative team of diverse creatives, including filmmakers, artists, musicians, and writers.
