It would seem that the director had taken footage used on his last trip to Japan with his girl friend (Yukika Kudo) and decided to splice in used and found footage to make a hap-hazzard attempt at Eastern and Western observations. The result is an uninteresting vague examination of how one culture views another, through ill-fated questions and a lack of a cinematic eye for the viewer.

"Can talent be taught or does the general public have to suffer through this kind of mess time and again until something of substance and artistic merrit comes along?"
