Director Statement

This film, "The Sounds—Director's Cut" (2025), is the final version of this film. Because there is a previous version, and that version is very much inferior to this version. And this film is my first edited film. I've done all the editing, color work, sound design, and the title in this film. This film is a good learning process for me. And this film is based on Actual Events.
