Program Note
After ten years of bizarre activity, members of a Yakuza group and amateur film maniacs decide to shoot a film together. The allowed time is ten days. The Yakuza members are waiting to boast of their real actions to the action film maniacs without any script. This is a film about a film by Sono Sion who always goes beyond expectations. The last 20-minute sequence shooting a film inside a set studio is very impressive. Starting with clashing samurai swords and ending with a fierce gunfight, it could be referred to Sono Sion’s version of Kill Bill. However, it goes further than Quentin Tarantino in every aspect. Precisely speaking, it goes much wilder. He makes the action scene, which is more likely to be seen in a slasher film, obscure enough to be confusing whether it is a special effect or reality. He weighs the fictional world in ‘the film inside a film’ and that of ‘this film’, and escapes from the film at the last minute to reflect on these objects. The reaction is either being embarrassed or being enthusiastic. (KANG Sowon)
