Norihito\, who works at a company tasked with cleaning the homes of those who have died unnoticed\, becomes profoundly impacted by the loneliness and forgotten lives he encounters daily. These experiences provoke a deep reflection on his own existence\, relationships\, and past choices\, pushing him to grapple with profound questions about human connectivity and isolation. \nInterwoven with Norihito’s introspective journey is the story of elderly Muramatsu\, who finds himself increasingly disconnected from society and struggling to rediscover a meaningful reason to continue his life. Through the interlacing of these deeply personal narratives\, the documentary delicately highlights the universal need for companionship\, compassion\, and understanding in a rapidly changing world. \nThis powerful documentary blends sensitive storytelling with striking cinematography\, capturing the emotional and societal dimensions of solitude. “Kodokushi” invites viewers not only to witness but also to thoughtfully engage with the silent epidemic of loneliness that affects many communities globally. \n   \n\n\nAbout the Director:\nBorn in Türkiye\, Ensar Altay pursued his education at the London Film Academy. Between 2012 and 2020\, he dedicated himself to creating television documentaries spanning diverse nations for various TV channels. His notable contribution includes the release of his first feature documentary\, “Kodokushi\,” a film that sheds light on the phenomenon of lonely deaths in Japan. \n\n\n\n\nIMPORTANT NOTES\nPlease be advised that filming and/or photography will be taking place at the event for the purposes of archiving\, marketing\, and all other publications.
