Muybridge's Strings

Finished

マイブリッジの糸

Eadweard Muybridge, a pioneering photographer, dedicates his life to capturing motion through sequential images, driven by an obsession to freeze time. In parallel, a Japanese mother struggles with the passage of time as she watches her child grow, clinging to fleeting moments of happiness. Their paths, though separated by continents and eras, converge in a shared longing to preserve what is ephemeral.

Through a poetic blend of animation and historical narrative, the film explores the human desire to halt the relentless flow of time. Muybridge's experiments with chronophotography become a metaphor for the mother's attempts to hold onto her daughter's childhood. As their stories intertwine, the boundaries between art, memory, and reality blur, revealing the universal struggle against impermanence.
