LINE OF TIMES Mizuki Takahashi Co-Director, MILL6 Foundation

Our hectic lives are firmly bolted to the treadmill of time. (…) Running like a common thread through the history of human thought, East and West, North and South is a belief that the entire paradigm of human temporality is rooted in some sort of monstrous illusion; it is but an elaborate product of the human mind.1

The future home of MILL6 Foundation is inside the renovated DPUUPO TQJOOJOH NJMMT PG /BO 'VOH 5FYUJMFT, which was originally built in the 1960s.

A key item in the film is kumihimo, a traditional form of braid-making in Japan practised at Mitsuha’s shrine for generations. It serves to connect past and present where Mitsuha and Taki, respectively, live. One
