Kites at Dawn

87 min

Best for: falling asleep to a story

After a long winter journey, Leo arrives at Aunt Yuki’s house feeling like a guest in a family rhythm he cannot quite follow. Before dawn, a lantern-lit walk leads him to the river field, where neighbours mend and raise a great phoenix kite. In small gestures, shared work, and quiet mistakes, he begins to feel the first thread of belonging.
