## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Pacing fluorescent hallways at 4 AM, a six-foot koala in a sodden suit clutches a bloodstained ledger.

His sleepwalking apartment hides a murdered human lover; the city’s neon siren wails for a suspect who remembers nothing.

One jittery raccoon, one felonious frog, and an alibi made of pickles later.

—Takeshi Kitano meets Joe Dante by way of J-horror footnotes.

**Mood tags**: playful, surreal, unhinged
