Village of the Dolls

After living in Osaka for many years, Ayano Tsukimi decided to retire and live the rest of her life in her hometown of Nagoro. Since she returned several years ago, the village's population has declined. To fill the void, Ayano spends her time making life-size dolls in the likeness of the villagers who've passed away. Today, 350 such dolls dot the landscape, repopulating a once-thriving community that has now fallen silent. The eerie display of dolls has given the village a renewed reputation, which attracts scores of tourists year round. The film gives us a unique insight into one of Japan's most serious social issues, an fast aging population.
