Takashi Murakami's feature film debut will most likely be freaky and weird. You've seen his eccentric "super flat" style before, but never in live action.
Synopsis:
Having recently lost his father, young Masashi moves with his mother to a small city in the Japanese countryside. But when he discovers that their new apartment is already inhabited by a pint-sized, gravity-defying creature, Masashi begins to pull back the curtain on this sleepy town and finds very little is what it appears to be. Unraveling a conspiracy that involves everything from remote-controlled avatars to crazed rival cults, Masashi discovers that he and his classmates are at the center of a nefarious experiment.
Now if we could only get a screening of Warped Forest.
