Message from Producer Koji Matsumoto and Director Isamu Imakake:

Why did we make this film?

UFOs, aliens, the existence of other planets and its civilizations, are things which we cannot see and yet scientifically proved to be existed. However, by paying attention and seeking those mysterious world will enhance our cognitions and become the power to open a possibility for the future.  We wish people to have an opportunity to think about this world view.

Why should you watch this film?

The world now has a lot of different issues. We think this film has hints and themes to solve those issues. Racial discriminations, conflicts between ethnicities and religions are severe problems on Earth. However, in order to build up the peaceful world, it is more important to accept diversity and understand each other than fight and hate one another. Often we meet people who cannot understand or accept. But when we meet somebody like that, we think it is important to look upon what God wishes for us, who has been watching over since the very beginning of humankind.

How do personal and universal themes work in this film?

Love is one of the main themes of this film. There are different kind of love, such as love for neighbors, nations, ethnicities, religions and more. We believe there is even bigger love embraces everything on Earth. This film has a lot of fighting scenes, we believe the battles for love and justice in order to protect something or someone is important to keep the world in peace. So, even if you hurt someone in the past, we believe that by awakening to true love and faith, you can grow, improve and become a better human being.
