The Shepherd's Story/Shinjuku 2009 + Ogaki 2010

One can often form an image of a city after listening to the stories of a local barber or street musician. Within this 'image' wanders a shepherd. One sheep strays from the herd and begins asking locals 'What is your ideal place?'' The shepherd, too, often thought about that question as he herded. 'The Shepard's Story' is a fiction film that also doubles as a documentary where viewers imagine the future while exploring a city. This film was made according to strict directions and other 'Shepard's Story' films were made in other cities using the same rules.
