NecoBan Cats in Your Life

NecoBan Cats In Your Life is a short and quiet story about a grumpy old man his sleepy granddaughter and the many many cats that show up in their country home Ibu Masato frowns away as a proud retired man with a bad back and a chip on his shoulder about his wife and daughter leaving him at home He barely speaks out loud but through narrative voiceover we hear his obsession with time his grievances with being bored and alone his concern for appearances and his crabby curiosity about all the cats running amuck in the house Through a small ridiculous turn of events he ends up stranded on his roof with no way down The myriad helpless facial expressions the veteran actor rolls out during his attempts to get back down are absolutely hilarious Who knew an old man on a roof could be so funny
