Synopsis

FotoSaeki is a deserted photography goods store in the Santa Maria la Ribera neighborhood in Mexico City. Its owner, Yukio Saeki, arrived in Mexico in 1955. At 83, he can still hear the echo of a hot Monday morning in Japan, as he walked across a field toward the ocean as the atomic bomb fell.
