The film follows Kyoto during the Heian period(the 10th century) in Japan.
Tens of thousands dead, gutters filled with corpses, children abandoned in the mountains, and groups of wild dogs vigilantly watching outside the city.
The elegant image of the Heian period has been shown in many literary and artistic works. However, Katabuchi's new work takes us back to Kyoto a thousand years ago, when the city was shrouded in darkness due to repeated epidemics of plague.

Where it came from
Tsurubami-Iro no Nagiko-tachi, also known as The Colors Within, was produced by Studio Contrail and directed by Naoko Yamada, marking her return to feature-length filmmaking following her work with Science SARU. Yamada, renowned for her empathetic focus on character interiority and atmospheric detail, conceived this original story to explore the intersection of human emotion and synesthesia, using color as a central narrative vehicle to visualize how the protagonist perceives the world around her.
The film was crafted to emphasize a tactile, painterly aesthetic, drawing on the collaborative efforts of writer Reiko Yoshida and composer Kensuke Ushio, both of whom have frequently partnered with Yamada to create emotionally resonant works. Upon its release, the film was noted for its distinctive visual language and the delicate, grounded approach to its coming-of-age themes, garnering critical appreciation for its ability to convey profound personal growth through subtle animation and sound design.
