Tobishima
2020, Japanese. Directed by Kei Tanaka & Kôichi Omiya.
Tobishima used to be a prosperous sea transportation hub in the Sea of Japan, but now it is a quiet island with a small and aging population. The only junior high school student in the island will graduate this year, and his school, Tobishima Elementary and Junior High School, will be closed at the end of this school year.
