The Town Of Headcounts

Aoyama flees from loan sharks to a mysterious town, where food, shelter and even transactional sex are easily available. However, when a new arrival starts looking for her missing sister, things take a sinister turn. Shinji ARAKI’s feature film debut blends several genre elements into a visionary, politically incisive commentary on the state of society.
