Synopsis

A girl in a wheelchair in a hospital room sees a downed pigeon outside her window and fantasizes that he is a little spirit, and that he is leading her and playing with her legs freely.

Artist's intent

The Korean film <The wailing> and the American film <Hereditary> are both horror movies, both have tragic endings, and both have unstable protagonists. However, both directors insist on using tragedy to comfort

us. “You couldn't do it because you're human. What is

natural.” “For someone who is really in pain, it's comforting

to see a movie that looks at the pain and tries to find meaning in life without embellishment.” My heart breaks easily when something hits me, and that's where the plot of this anime came from, and why I titled it Fall. The fall of the pigeon, whose real-life avatar is a little spirit in the animation, and the fall of the main character's heart, who has to have his leg amputated. As the two directors intended, I hope it brings comfort to you and can comfort others.
