Iwasaki Yusuke

Four unsettling short films exploring psychological horror: a man who barks like a dog at strangers, madness at a party, eerie phenomena following a friend's death, and a lakeside gathering cursed by water.

A supermarket as both a microcosm of Japanese society and the setting for a socially critical horror film. Expressionless faces and a supervisor who demands zombie-like friendliness. Only the young Sakai doesn’t stop hoping.

Asagi's classmates don’t seem concerned when her friend Satake suddenly dies in a strange way: they just continue their conversations about food and karaoke. While Asagi struggles with her loss, everything around her becomes increasingly absurd. A promising, idiosyncratic psychological horror debut with a generous dollop of dark humour and an eerie atmosphere.
