The Extinction of Landscape
風景の死滅
A documentary film derived from footage shot at the site of the Sanrizuka struggle, which opposed the construction of Narita Airport. It captures scenes before and after the Nihon Genyasai Festival in Sanrizuka, as well as time-lapse sequences of abandoned houses and construction equipment leveling requisitioned land.
The film presents a stark visual record of the landscape's transformation, showing the gradual erasure of rural life as industrial development takes over. Through its observational style, it documents the physical and social changes brought by the airport's construction, focusing on the conflict between preservation and progress.
