Nobody talks about this one. A 15-minute film that exists in exactly one place on Earth, a cinema in Takayuki Hirao's hometown, and Ufotable made it anyway, not for distribution, not for accolades, but because the story demanded to exist there, rooted in Sanuki soil. That commitment to a single location, a single audience, transforms what could be a minor short into something that feels like a secret the director buried on purpose. You either make the pilgrimage or you don't.

Hiirigo has spent his whole life in a small country town, restless and fed up with a home where nothing ever seems to happen. His popular older brother Kaito and his childhood friend Ranzumi appear to be getting along just fine, until something strange happens to both of them. This original short drama film from Ufotable is set in Sanuki, where director Takayuki Hirao was born. It has no home release and can only be seen at an Ufotable Cinema in Tokushima.
