Scattered Reflection is a curious piece, with a gentle, introspective tone that lingers throughout. It captures the delicate journey of Shima, a high school student hiding her poetic talents while navigating a budding romance with Kento. The film has this kind of subdued atmosphere, almost like a whisper, where the quiet moments speak volumes. Mirei Kiritani’s performance as Shima is striking; she embodies the complexity of a young artist—self-doubt mingling with ambition. It leans heavily on themes of identity and the struggle to express oneself, with some nice practical effects that add to the emotional weight. The pacing is gradual, reflective even, which might not be for everyone, but it draws you in if you’re open to its unique rhythm.
