Nobody talks about this one. A short film about two people who have already decided what they are to each other, then watch it stop being true. The camera stays still. The dialogue doesn't explain anything. You feel the distance between them growing in silence, and by the time either of them moves, you understand what breaking up actually costs, not the dramatic moment, but the ordinary morning after it becomes real. This is the kind of film that reminds you why animation exists: to show you something true that live-action would oversell. Made by someone who watched real people stop loving each other and decided to film it without looking away.
lovesome is a film that Rina Tsukamoto created as her graduation project at Tama Art University. The student work was released as a single-episode movie.
