What they share
Theysit in Crime / Documentary territory. If that's the register that drew you to I Am Jane Doe, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What A.K.A. Serial Killer is
You follow the trail of a nineteen-year-old serial killer across 1960s Japan. But the media circus obscures a deeper story of poverty and social alienation. Adachi's camera implicates the viewer, blurring lines between documentary and something else entirely.
