Set in downtown Osaka, this film surprises viewers with its many twists as it follows a daughter searching for her missing father. While it first seems like a simple family drama, it soon reveals itself as a dark suspense thriller, similar to Bong Joon-ho's “Mother.” Satō Jirō's unsettling performance, Makita Ayaka's coming-of-age journey, and Shimizu Hiraya's strong presence come together to explore the boundary between good and evil.

Director Masaaki Yuasa’s latest film is a unique rock opera set in Japan’s 14th-century Muromachi period. By blending modern rock music with historical themes, the film gives a voice to those forgotten by history and sets a new standard for animated storytelling.
