Synopsis

Kotoko is a young mother who suffers from double vision and caring for her baby is a nerve-wrecking task that eventually leaders her to a nervous breakdown. She is suspected of being a child abuser when things get out of control and her baby is taken away.

Our take

A bone-chilling yet empathetic look at the extreme loneliness of motherhood, Shin’ya Tsukamoto’s bracing character study shocks with its disquieting soundscape. In her first-ever screen role, J-rock artist Cocco translates the chaos of a tortured mind into striking and unforgettable bodily gestures.
