While walking through the streets of Tokyo, Naoya Hatakeyama saw a small stone. It reminded him of the way home from school when he was a teenager, he used to have fun kicking the stones that were in the way. Out of nostalgia, he decided to give light blows to this small stone and let himself be guided by it. Without noticing, he arrives at the entrance of an underground passage and, out of curiosity, decides to enter it. He then found himself in the dark, in order to capture the images of this wet and concrete place he had to create without a single source of light.
