Keita Kurosaka spent 10 years animating pencil sketches by hand

The Cinema Today website began and this year.

The site introduces the story as follows:

In anticipation of the coming food crisis, five scientists are working to develop a “dream food,” one that is both meat and vegetable. But, progress in the laboratory, located amidst a derelict shopping district, has hit a dead end. One day, in the wee hours of the night, a pillar of light penetrates the lab. This is the light of a special starry sky that graces the Earth only once every ten thousand years. The scientists are overjoyed at what the light's tremendous force has produced: the dream food that is Midori-ko.

Kurosaka spend a decade drawing the pencil sketches that make up this 55-minute film by hand. His previous works include the "Agitated Scream of Maggots" music video for Hiromichi Sakamoto directed the music for Midori-ko.
