Set in Japan several decades from now, the world has undergone accelerated "two-seasonization," in which spring and autumn have disappeared, leaving only scorching summers and freezing winters. Against the backdrop of a land no longer habitable by humans, a young fox girl sets out on a journey in search of the lost season known as "spring." Her goal is to find a legendary cherry blossom. The story serves as both a warning about the realities brought about by climate change and a quiet prayer for hope in the future. © WORLD AI FILM FESTIVAL 2026 in KYOTOWAIFF 2026 in Kyoto \*transcosmos is a trademark or registered trademark of transcosmos inc. in Japan and other countries. \*Other company names and product or service names used here are trademarks or registered trademarks of respective companies. **■ About transcosmos inc. **transcosmos launched its operations in 1966.
