Скачать или смотреть MUDDY: A mud-soaked farewell in a formal silk KIMONO

*In Japanese culture, a kimono is a traditional formal outer garment, not underwear. It is worn as a complete outfit and is comparable to a formal dress in Western cultures.

This work was produced with the generous cooperation of one of our site's long-time heavy users, who provided a complete set of a homongi kimono and accessories and also offered specific guidance regarding the filming concept.

Upon arriving at a rice field that is not in use, she begins by playing with a balance ball and taking part in a mud-themed true-or-false quiz. As these activities continue, she gradually becomes more and more covered in mud.

Once the kimono is soiled, there is no turning back. Embracing the moment, she rolls across the muddy ground and deliberately spreads mud over herself, until the once beautiful pale-pink homongi is completely transformed into a uniform brown. Her head and face are also covered in mud, leaving her in a 'mud-covered' state, with no trace remaining of the elegant traditional appearance she had just moments before.

In the final scene, water from a hose is poured over the mud-covered kimono, and it is rinsed in a tub filled with water. However, because the fabric is a delicate pale-pink silk, the mud stains remain, leaving the kimono permanently damaged and no longer wearable.
