MIYA E JIN
Tanaka Miya is an artist who reassembles ceramics with the ancient Japanese technique of Kintsugi. He fixes the various shards with gold until they give them a new life as "a metaphor for the struggles of existence, which make people more mature and better, as they overcome suffering". Miya and her husband, Tanaka Jin, move to Italy for work needs; guests in a house built near an old abandoned mill. The distance between the two protagonists is evident right from the start: they eat and sleep together but behave like two strangers. One night Miya and Jin are woken up by a loud noise of water and gears that resembles that of an old mill. Every night the sounds repeat themselves, keeping the two spouses awake and, as the days pass, they are increasingly sleepless and worn out by tiredness. Together they will have to find the source of those infernal noises and break down the wall that separates them to find each other again.
