"Kōrakuen" is a compelling drama about love, loss, and personal liberation from the bonds of medical and mental challenges. The audience will experience our main character's struggle to manage both his autism and his depression as he tries to move beyond his beloved wife's death and map out a future without her.
Our goal with "Kōrakuen" is to portray a character struggling with neurological and mental issues who manages to overcome his adversity. Mental health challenges are prevalent in every society, and our deep connection to both Japan and the United States has inspired us to use both countries as the backdrop to tell this story. Our aim is not only to make an artistically compelling work, but also to be a source of support for those undergoing the difficulties highlighted in this film, and instill strength and hope in them.
