OKADO Mikio / 2002 / digital / color / 9min.
　
The island of Gunkanjima has been completely abandoned. Buildings once it with the fires and lights of daily life have turned into concrete gravestones. One night, a sudden spark illuminates each room one by one. The filmmaker records this almost ceremonial happening with a fixed camera, then uses digital effects to match the luminous fluxes in this requiem for the unknown building. The work’s title means “secret ceremony.” (From the 2003 IFF catalogue)
