If you loved Electric Dragon 80000V, try August in the Water
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
Both films are directed by Gakuryu Ishii, and they sit in Fantasy / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Electric Dragon 80000V, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What August in the Water is
Tokyo seaside. Cicada rasp. A dropped ice cream. A beachside accident unleashes strange new powers in a young swimmer. Her changed body becomes a source of fear, fascination, and possible connection to cosmic forces. Gakuryu Ishii pivots, unexpectedly, toward shōjo manga's mystical preoccupations.
