KOBE is a composition of images and sound. Without narration or interviews, the film explores the daily tasks and little pleasures of people: a fish auction at the wholesale market, karaoke singers in a private music saloon, the men of Kobe Rescue on their training ground. Kobe is a poetic documentary giving an insight of human activities within a Japanese seaport.
