The Sonic Life of a Giant Tortoise
by Toshiki Okada, Aya Ogawa

A man dreams that his girlfriend is dead.

Not because he wants to kill her but because he imagines his life would be more meaningful to have a girlfriend who has died.

A woman dreams she is riding the subway, forever.

She arrives at a mysterious gathering deep underground, and when she returns to her real life, she finds that decades have gone by and her boyfriend is aged and dying.

The Sonic Life of a Giant Tortoise is a modern folktale set against an urban landscape, about our collective longing for the extraordinary, and the mundanity of everyday life.
