An unexpected love story, and the final episode of "Vitaal Filmen".

A surreal puppet animation about one day in the life of an old man. The story takes place in the house where the old man lives. When the old man gets out of the bath and goes down the spiral staircase, a young man in a bathrobe suddenly appears, ranting loudly about something. Surprised, the old man goes after him and finds the young man in the cellar struggling with another man. The man's head falls and rolls. From then on, a dizzying world of images unfolds in rapid succession, the space becomes cosmic, and various objects begin to float. As the artist himself says, "I created this work as a single image", and it is perhaps best to let the flow of images unfold in front of you, rather than trying to read some kind of narrative. The dolls are grotesquely detailed, the sets like works of art. The props and objects have a natural texture. It is a work of such a high standard that anyone who hears that it took three years to make will nod their head in agreement.

8mm film by Yukiyasu Shimada, autumn 1992. A prelude to "Kazuko; RONDO..."

White clouds drift across a blue sky. It takes place at Jounenji Temple in Kyoto, Japan. The son of the priest spends his day in a daze, doing nothing. The only one who comes to see him is an older man who likes to drink. The season passes quietly as the two drink together... Spring with its greenery, summer with its festival music, autumn with its moonlight, winter with its snow. The film is a visual poem that depicts the passage of time, incorporating seasonal scenes. The depth of the picture created by the precise framing, the fixed camera that captures the subtle changes in the wind and light, and the sound recording that even captures the rustling of the leaves, all combine to create a "drama" that can only be described as cinematic.

Every day is peaceful. There is an elderly couple who live together. The husband still works, albeit sparingly, and the wife does the housework. They eat together, know each other's tastes, and talk a little while watching TV. The film is a quiet account of their unhurried life together. The camera's gaze is quiet but gentle as it carefully follows the old couple, interspersed with summer scenes from the countryside, like a documentary. The camera's gaze is quiet but gentle, and the occasional embarrassing gestures and expressions on the couple's faces give the viewer a sense of closeness to the camera (and to the people holding it). The old man is a very picturesque subject even when he is just standing there, but this film has a peculiar rhythm to it, which may be staged or naturalistic.

The film is a naturalistic portrayal of the temperament of a single woman of today. The film is a real love story about the life of a single woman. The use of props such as a credit card and an answering machine in an unreasonable setting shines through in the scenario.
