Follow a scene into the hills. A song onto the Strip. A story all the way to the ocean.
Hotel windows, crossings, record districts and late-night counters. Discover Tokyo through rhythm rather than postcard shorthand.
A diner and a hotel bathroom reveal how small everyday spaces support the film’s elaborate stories.
Dial: tune a car radio to 93 KHJ and each station break opens a real 1969 place.
Kamishibai: pull picture cards out of a wooden paper theatre and each one stamps where the film’s Tokyo was really made, from a Beijing soundstage to a Los Angeles tunnel; then wiggle your big toe to wake Los Angeles.
Follow collaborators through their work and the real places tied to it.
