## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

After the first cherry blossoms fall, a high-school girl hangs from a gym bar—alive again, jaws wired shut, hunting downtown salarymen. Her friend Rika meets Mayumi, who claims her alien whispers lullabies instead of screams. Together they trail downtown shadows toward neon thunder.

A nod to Cronenberg’s body-horror agitprop.
