The 12 minute movie is directed, produced and cut but the Oster-San himself, and it is something uniquely entertaining.

Sakuraba Motoi is once again taking his listeners to a fantasy. Labyrinth no Kanata spreads its charm and mystery as music flows from this CD.

He brings out the mist, the damp and the eerie beauty of the surroundings, and the doll-like prettiness of the silver haired guide in the game. He goes from his usual grand orchestra to the synthesizer, each sound is like a jewel, and what strings them together is Sakuraba's magic.
