In the ever-changing, redeveloping landscape of Tokyo, Ren Takano works as a delivery driver of moth orchids. Haunted by the childhood loss of his mother, Yumiko, to suicide, he has long been estranged from his father, Hajime, a landscape designer. One day, during a routine delivery, Ren unexpectedly comes face to face with Hajime…

Selected for Directors' Fortnight at Cannes, Brand New Landscape transforms the Japanese capital's architectural flux into a metaphor for a family navigating grief and disconnection. Yuiga Danzuka's debut feature captures the soul of the city while creating what Variety called “a quietly affecting Japanese drama.”
