Finding Your Inner Soul and Self in Rip Tide
Rip Tide is a coming-of-age film that teaches viewers about finding yourself and reconnecting with surroundings.

In 2021 the COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of ARABAKI ROCK FEST.20th×21, and with it the Tohoku club tour ARABAKI×BiS GiP! -GREAT iDOL PURiTANS- that Japanese idol group BiS had been booked to play. Rather than let the slot pass in silence, the four members gathered at F.A.D Yokohama, performed their planned festival set to an empty room and sent the footage to promoter GIP as a thank-you. That summer the postponed shows finally happened. Backed for the first time in the group's history by a live rock band — ARABAKI 20th CENTURY STUPiD BOYS, uniting Toru Hidaka of THE STARBEMS, Noriaki Tsuda of KEMURI and RONZI of BRAHMAN — BiS tore through four venues across Tohoku, from Sendai GIGS on 30 July to small clubs in Ishinomaki and Miyako, towns still marked by the 2011 tsunami. This document follows the road, the rehearsals and the roar, and closes on the empty festival field.

It’s the most loving tribute to cinema and to Ingmar Bergman, set in world that feels so habitable that I felt like only re-watching this for eternity, because of how inviting it looks and feels.
