My Daddy Long Legs
1992 · 13 min
The story follows a Japanese soldier stationed on the Southern Front who continues sending educational funds to a female student. The story begins when the soldier, returning from the battlefield to a city devastated by Japan’s defeat, encounters an abandoned child. The film features scenes of a bomb-damaged city, which Yasuhara secretly filmed inside the sets of Akira Kurosawa’s Madadayo (1993), shortly before they were dismantled. The film received the Grand Prix at the Business Jump / CINEMA Daisuki Video Awards and the Special Jury Prize in the Off Theater category at the 4th Yubari International Fantastic Film Festival.
