YUKIGUNI - Snowboarding Short Film
Through the tunnel, into the vast area of snow.
There is a place not far from Tokyo. An area of unique snow culture. For a snowboarder, it is a place of joy that allows him to leave tracks on top of the white surface that storms coming from the Japan sea create. This place is Snow Country, also known as YUKIGUNI.
