The film is between a documentary and a feature film. There are two inseparable parts: one part is that the villagers of Short Cape Village face water pollution and government inspections, and the other part is that the hero invites the heroine to come to this seaside from Paris. Komura, trying to save their relationship.
When the title just unfolded in the small village by the sea, the strong contrast of tones gave this black and white film a tactile feeling - one could feel the scorching dazzling heat of the sun, and expect an explosive force in the calm movement of the lens. In her shots, wood, sea water, cloth, and shellfish all become a solemn object of expression, not only the background of the plot and characters' activities, but also have their own textures. This effect is not only achieved by a few close-ups, it is a close-up that starts from the "attention", so it has an aesthetic interpretation. This kind of attention makes the empty shot not "empty", and makes the whole film always have a real sense of materiality. This material is not a commodity, does not mean prosperity and prosperity, but a kind of natural texture in poverty and simplicity .
