Program Note
The fourth film of Matsumoto Hitoshi, a well-known comedian and director, starts with an ordinary man joining a mysterious club. This film soon blurs the border between fantasy and reality by converging the exhibiting media into a film within a film, TV in a film, and animated imagination. Then it goes further into a film within a film and blurs the border between genres by blending topics like abnormal sexual desires, actions, zombies, and fantasy. It also becomes more eccentric by extending the world of previous works through questions about the illogical nature of films. The women in black are at the center of this eccentricity by playing SM women, the heroine of Gatchaman, and Ninjas to provoke the oppressed desire of the protagonist. When the film shows the sense of B comedy and mentions the after-effect of an earthquake still lingering after three years, it seems to despair that disasters cannot be easily overlooked. It’s like a gift package that is truly enjoyable only when the common logic of the world is being thrown away. (PARK Inho)
