5cm per second

is a piece of beautifully rendered animation the title of which references the speed at which cherry blossoms falls. Metaphorically, the cherry blossoms represents humans, often starting together but inevitably pursuing our separate ways. The story is told in three acts, Cherry blossom, Cosmonaut and lastly , 5 centimeters per second. The total runtime is about an hour.
