Nomura is haunted by dreams of a ronin (masterless samurai) that she believes is her past life. Animated using non-traditional hand-drawn techniques.

Director's Bio:
Jesse Norton is a Quapaw tribe native-American, has been kicked out of two film schools, and had to fistfight his way out of one stolen Mexico City taxicab. He's unorthodoxly trained in animation by Chuck Jones and several Japanese studios. Together with his animation studio, Humouring the Fates, Norton has merged many techniques to develop this style.
