Theysit in Mystery / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Memoirs of a Murderer, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Ekeb of Dekye is
November rain on a hospital parking lot. A doctor’s phone lights up with a single calendar alert, the word DEKYE blinking red. On the eve of departure with his lover, he slips into the president’s penthouse, scalpel tucked beneath a change of scrubs. A film that knows the darkest corridors of corporate Japan have always been this narrow.
