Synopsis

He does not remember much from that time. Things have faded, like the color of a painting after too much light. The only thing that bothers him is this music. It keeps popping up... He thinks he has forgotten what it meant. All he knows, for sure, is that he cannot get it out of his head. This is enough to make him just a tiny bit worried. He’d never want an Eggregore to be born because of this. They say they come when one thinks too much about something…

*The short film "The Eggregores’ Theory" will be screened before the film “My Neighbor Totoro” by Hayao Miyazaki (Japan, 1988, 86 min).
