The Shrine Path and Torii Gate in the Countryside
In *A Letter to Momo*, after moving to a small island in the Seto Inland Sea with her mother, the protagonist Momo often climbs the stone steps alone to this shrine nestled in the woods. The shot features a vermilion torii gate standing among dense foliage, fallen leaves scattered on the steps, and Momo lingering or encountering invisible 'yōkai.' The summer cicada buzz and sea breeze create a serene yet slightly mysterious atmosphere.
