IRODUKU: The World in Colors

In a world where magic has faded into the background of everyday life, Hitomi Tsukishiro, a teenage mage from a long line of magic users, finds her world literally devoid of color. Burdened by her inability to perceive hues and the accompanying emotional distance, she’s sent back in time by her grandmother to the year 2018. This magical journey is a desperate attempt to reconnect Hitomi with a vibrant past and, perhaps, herself. Arriving in a bustling, colorful world she can barely see, Hitomi is thrust into a new school and a new life. As she navigates the challenges of fitting in and understanding a different era, a chance encounter with a young artist’s drawings begins to subtly shift her perception. This beautifully animated coming-of-age story explores themes of connection, self-discovery, and the unexpected ways art can illuminate even the darkest corners of our lives.
