Synopsis
In his new cinematic adventure, RaĂșl Perrone makes a new incursion into the Japanese out of ItuzaingĂł in order to shape the variations of a story that revolves around a woman who cuts dead peopleâs hair, a samurai with an intolerable mission, a nosy burglar, a feudal lord on the verge of insanity and a giant metal fish. The film is freely inspired in the original version of Rashomon âwritten by RyĆ«nosuke Akutagawaâ and, as usual in his filmography since P3ND3JO5 (2013), Perrone blends different elements from classical film; in this case, visible ghosts from Kurosawaâs cinema and certain aspects of Japanâs traditional culture melt with nightmarish distortions and machinistical irruptions, typical of a future that may never come. âThe avant-garde is in the pastâ he once said in an interview. In his reimagining of film history, Perrone again finds an inexhaustible field of expression.
