Based on chapter one of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen. The original text depicts a disaster brought about by tools and technology. There is a connection between this theme and the nuclear power plant accident that occurred in Japan in 2011. Tsuji's film attempts to be an interleaving depiction of the original story and the real-life disaster.

Where it came from
Fragments, often associated with experimental digital art and multimedia installations, emerged from the mid-2010s shift toward glitch-influenced, non-linear aesthetics. Created as a meditation on the permanence of digital data, the piece was designed to challenge the viewer's perception of static imagery by utilizing fragmented rendering techniques. Its development reflects a broader movement among new-media artists who sought to evoke the sensation of memory loss and the decay of analog signals within a modern software environment.
The aesthetic direction was led by proponents of minimalist digital abstraction who aimed for a stark, evocative clarity. By stripping away conventional narratives and focusing on the structural breakdown of the medium itself, the designers intended to force a visceral engagement with the digital canvas. Upon its release, it received critical attention for its technical precision and its ability to turn computational errors into a cohesive, contemplative visual language, marking it as a significant example of its genre.
