If you loved A Thousand and One Nights, try Emotion
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Drama / Fantasy / Horror territory. If that's the register that drew you to A Thousand and One Nights, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Emotion is
Cityside, late summer. A child's skipping rope. Emi's double appears to her as an older girl's vision, a doppelganger in the adult world, maybe a vampire's thrall. Is any of it real? Obayashi's avant-garde origins are on full display.
