Description:
In dreams, anything can happen… Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could make Any one of your dreams come true! You must open your mind wide when you dream. If you believe in the power of dreams, You can reach for the stars. For centuries, the starlit sky has been a home For all sorts of mysterious creatures. This is also the power of dreams. You should try to treasure whatever Your imagination conjures up in your dreams. Each thought has a special meaning. Science has given us so much Because people dreamed whatever they wanted, And then turned their dreams into reality. Even if someday we live on another planet, We would still long to see dandelions blooming, And the ocean glittering in the morning sun. Rabbits, wind, apples and snowflakes all have dreams. If we all dream for peace and happiness For all things on earth, Our dreams will surely come true! The original film format is 70mm, 8 perforations per frame (JAPAX projection system). Images were rendered at 1400 × 1008 resolution.
