To commemorate International Women’s Day on March 8, musician Kaho Nakamura and the luxury brand LOEWE, based in Madrid, Spain, have come together for a special collaboration. The craftsmanship of Nakamura, who meticulously weaves melody and lyrics to create a one-of-a-kind sonic world, resonated here with LOEWE’s craftsmanship, which delicately handcrafts bags and apparel. This film captures, for the first time for the brand, a live performance held at the Ginza flagship store, Casa Loewe Tokyo. Director Yuka Yamaguchi filmed Nakamura’s passionate solo piano performance of “AINOU,” a song imbued with hopes for the future, in a single continuous take.

Mitsubishi Materials Group marks its 150th anniversary. Through character animation, the film expresses the group’s commitment to creating new value and a better future through manufacturing, as well as its determination to change the way things are through recycling—and to transform itself in the process—with “infinity” as its motif. Narration and music were created by kotringo, an artist active on the global stage.
