Screenplay
쓰가루시 북쪽 지방에 사는 여고생 이토는 취미로 쓰가루 샤미센을 연주한다. 샤미센을 독학해 고수가 된, 돌아가신 어머니로부터 배운 것이다. 이토는 음악을 연주해 자신을 표현하면서 점점 말수가 적어지는데 강한 쓰가루 사투리가 부끄럽기 때문이다. 친구가 별로 없는 수줍은 성격이지만, 마음 속으로는 메이드 카페에서 일하고 싶은 과감한 생각이 있다.

A short film about a childlike wife and her husband's love. With mundane conversation and familiar scenery, each day passes without any changes. But, in fact, every day is full of small adventures and nothing is the same as yesterday.

Nakagawa shot “Coming Future” on the nights of December 24 and 25, 2010 in Shibuya, making it his location for an idealized Bohemia in the heart of Tokyo. Interesting interviews/discussions with Kenji Murakami, Nobuhiro Yamashita, Kenji Onishi, Tetsuaki Matsue and more... By far the most interesting sequence is with Kenji Onishi (“A Burning Star”). Wielding a super-8 camera, Onishi documents his own interview, taking random shots of street-life and buildings. He leavens his monologue with statements bordering between cliché and outré. “A movie that aims to make a message is boring.”
