The Pinkie

Since they were both five Ryosuke has been stalked by Momoko the ugliest girl in the village Her love for Ryosuke is so boundless that she has her face surgically altered to suit his taste but still he wants nothing to do with her Ryosuke goes in for fleeting romance for example with the girlfriend of a gangster boss But when he finds out about their affair he has Ryosukes little finger hacked off Magically the finger falls into Momokos hands and she uses it to clone Ryosuke so she can finally have him or almost him for herself And this is just the first five minutes of Lisa Takebas shortbutpowerful feature debut Just like in her previous short films the director who cut her teeth in the advertising world and as the writer of a video game throws a lot of genres and techniques into the mix from science fiction to gangster films from hospital eroticism to animation Hectic and absurd but with its heart in the right place IFFR
