Mom, I’m really afraid that I will not be able to die. Why, baby, why do you say such a thing? Mom is praying for your health. Not that, Mom. I’m always well. But I won’t be able to die. Well, one day, suddenly, I lose ground and fall. I keep falling forever though I can’t die. I have to fall in the darkness forever. Forever and ever…… Tetsuo Furudate was born in Tokyo, Japan.

With this film, we want to re-establish the fundamental rights of every human being to life and equality. The film short-circuits the hegemony of the Pope and bypasses the power of the Catholic church - indeed, of institutionalized religion altogether. We want to connect with the Creator of all things, wile challenging all religions of the world. We have no organized structure, no rules. Our only mission is to return what rightfully belongs to each individual on this earth. Through this film, we offer a direct connection to that which had been withheld for thousands of years. Help yourselves!
