"A Girl from Nowhere" from "urban folklore 99" series 

Animation/Music by Sanpo Matsumoto

----
Animation from Sanpo Matsumoto's "urban folklore 99" animation project.
It's a part of short short animation series project "ANIMATION HAIKU".

Bases of spiritual concept of "Tsukumo-gami" .
It is a concept come from Japanese folklore.
The term is generally understood to be applied to virtually any object,"that has reached their 100th birthday and thus become alive and self-aware".
In Japan,we can watch many old paintings from this theme.
Old pot,umbllera or many kind of antiques become alive and walk around mid night.
They are also called YO-KAI.

In "Tsukumogami" series,Sanpo create stories inspired from forgotten objects in present society.
