SYNOPSIS

Nao YOSHIGAI, who lost her mental and physical balance at 34, starts training at a Zen temple. Through Zen, she reexamines “eating,” “sleeping” and “breathing,” viewing her body and mind as a “bag of flesh.” Inspired by Michizo Noguchi’s words, she sees the body as a skin bag of fluid—free to expand and contract—where bones, organs and the brain float.
