Red String of Fate is a famous East Asian mythology in which gods tie an invisible red string between two people that are destined to be together.

The film unravels a story around the protagonist Tamaki, an aspiring genetic engineer, who engineers her own "Red Silk of Fate" in the hope of winning the heart of her crush, Sachihiko. She sews the "Red Silk of Fate" into her favourite scarf in order to win the love of her dreams, but strange, mythical powers start to inhabit her creation... 

"Red Silk of Fate"  invites the audience to imagine the futures of biotechnologies, where humans could soon be creating living things, which we believed to only exist in the mythical, magical worlds.
