"A film about love. A film about life. Life stronger than death. A film as a glimpse of hope."

"A striking new voice provides an intimate portrait of a closed community. Complete cinema."

"Misako, a young woman who provides audio-description, renders films more accessible for blind people. It is through poetry that this masterpiece allows us to pay more attention, to watch and listen to the world around us. The film allows for new conversations and inspires a broadening of the mind to understand others better. Hikari explores the responsibility, resilience, hope, and the possibility, even for those in the dark, to see the light."
