All our heartbeats are connected through exploding stars

with the presence of the director

March 11, 2011. First, the largest earthquake in Japan's modern history and then, thirty minutes later, dark tsunami waves roar in over the coast of North-Eastern Japan. As the water retreats from land it drags cars, homes and lives out into the sea. To the dramatic tones of composer Teho Teardo’s music, the film moves from the shores of Japan to the islands of Hawaii, via rarely seen places thousands of meters below sea level, and meet several characters, all coping with their traumas in different, particular ways. Meanwhile on the other side of the ocean, in the Hawaiian island of Kaho’olawe a group of volunteers are gathering to clean the beach from Japanese tsunami debris floating in from the Ocean, all while sharing stories of the afterlife.
