Japan 2011 – 20 Min. – no dialogues

Makino Takashi's source of inspiration, our place in the world and the universe, never seems to dry up in view of the never-ending flow of immersive films. „Generator“ may well be the earthiest of his films so far, made as a reaction to the Fukushima disaster. A reality check, but in the world that Makino shows, this can never be achieved without looking inwards too. – IFF Rotterdam
