Short Film: Little Stories of Some Interest
A short based on ‘The Tsurezuregusa of Emma,’ a collection of brief, haiku-like aphorisms by Emma Rohwer. Emma’s Tsurezuregusa’s (essays in idleness) are inspired by the original essays of the Japanese monk, Yoshida Kenko, written sometime in the early-mid fourteenth century. Penny Dreadfuls selected two of Emma’s ‘little stories’ to adapt for the big screen. Thanks to Tom Harpel for allowing us to use the song Sailor’s Friend from his album To Sing for Nights. Made in 2008.
