Akira Kurosawa's Kiku (Dodes'ka-den)
The Boy Whose Engine Dreams on Canvas
I'm the train that never stops running.
Some see a slum. I see tracks. Some hear noise. I hear engines. My legs move, my voice calls, and I ride through a world that doesn’t always see me—but I see it all. I am Dodes’ka-den. I do not speak much, but my feet speak clearly. My father draws houses in the air. I draw lines on the earth. This is my world. This is my journey.
What I'm Into: chalk-drawn tracks, the rhythm of wheels, railway crossings, my father's blueprints, passing the same spots every day
