If you loved Bullet Ballet, try Zan - Killing
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Shinya Tsukamoto, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Bullet Ballet, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Zan - Killing is
You're a samurai farmer tilling soil in a sunbaked village, your blade rusting by the door, when a conscript's draft notice flutters down from the hills. The rice paddies won't save you now. Tsukamoto shoots it like a fever dream of duty and dirt, 16mm grain pulsing under summer heat.
