The rooftops of a darkened city, a couple walking by a lone streetlight on an otherwise darkened street, an old man rocking in a creaky chair in the corner of a room lit only by the moon or the streetlight entering through the window.

Where it came from
Yoru no Hi, or 'Day of the Night,' is a short original net animation released in 2006 as a collaborative project between the electronics company Sony and the renowned animation studio Production I.G. The project was conceived as a promotional showcase for Sony’s Blu-ray Disc technology, intended to demonstrate the high-definition potential of the format through a visually dense, experimental narrative that pushed the boundaries of digital animation quality at the time.
The animation was directed by Ryutaro Nakamura, a filmmaker noted for his atmospheric and introspective style, and featured character designs by Yoshitoshi ABe, celebrated for his distinctive, minimalist aesthetic. The film follows a surreal journey through a dreamlike landscape, utilizing a muted, ethereal color palette to emphasize its technological showcase roots. While it functioned primarily as a technical demonstration, it was received by critics as a poignant piece of avant-garde animation, lauded for its moody direction and ABe's evocative visual sensibilities.
