I Am Non
NON is Making a Movie (1x1)
:
It is the first day of shooting. Actress Kaori Momoi arrives amidst a typhoon. NON struggles daily on set; but she is inspired by Ms. Momoi, who is also a director.
Three months prior to shooting--while NON prepares to create her movie--she visits movie director, Hirokazu Kore-eda. Kore-eda teaches her about the difference between self-expression and self-exhibition. A few weeks later, NON arrives in Tono City, Iwate where she adopts a classroom in a closed school as a studio. She takes inspiration for her screenplay from the stories and folk tales told by locals in the area.
