00:00 I went alone to Japan with the idea to film Solitude. I spent all my money on
00:14 camera and followed my dream. I knew I had to be there. And then I met him.
00:28 Something told me I had to follow him.
00:34 His name was Yamada-san and he was 63 years old. I couldn't ask any questions
00:40 but I felt there was something more about him than just a funny dress.
00:45 I'm a painter, artist, in a sense he cannot get along with society.
00:50 We didn't speak the same language. We could only communicate for other people.
00:57 The emotions on the faces were the greatest key.
01:03 Inside body? Like what? Like cancer? Cancer! I knew our meeting was more than a
01:12 coincidence. Today is the happiest time to have a chance to see you. I crossed all rational borders and that was the moment
01:21 where everything started to change.
01:38 Through a complete stranger I found myself.
