Interview with Anna Yamada and Yuu Imoo, "Hiraitate" Interviews: Their respective approaches to something that is far away from themselves.
SENSE OF DISTANCE

Interview with Anna Yamada and Yu Imoo for the movie "Hiraite
Each approach to something that is so far removed from you.

Based on the novel of the same title by Risa Wataya and featuring the theme song by Yasuko Omori, the story is driven by the protagonist's outlandish behavior, as if to say that young love drives people crazy. Although it cannot be said to follow the current trend of entertainment films that demand strong, strong sympathy for the characters, the film depicts the meaning of people opening their hearts and bodies to each other with crystal-clear emotional images. We welcomed Anna Yamada as Ai, the main character, and Yu Imoo as Miyuki, who plays the role of her love rival, but who also mysteriously communicates with Ai, and traced the path that led to the film.
