We Are Little Zombies
Nippon Cinema ª
Their parents’ ashes rise above four youngsters the day they first meet at a funeral center. Different blows of fate made them orphans but now they have one thing in common – none of them can cry. What sounds like a weepy drama turns out to be an anarchic comedy and visual fever dream. Abundant pop cultural references from games to J-Pop take us into the broken world of the young protagonists.
