Fusuma no Oku
襖の奥
Synopsis
A girl's chaotic thoughts, rooted in Japanese blood-defilement folklore, hide behind mirrors and sliding doors.
The theme came from the Japanese unique folklore, Red Uncleanness or defilement with blood. A girl, whose thinking pattern jumps at a leap without any train of thought, confines her various thoughts in the other side of the mirror and inside the sliding doors to go outside.
