HEART, BEATING IN THE DARK

"Cast and crew revisit unsettling story of outlaws on the run"

20051h 44m5.5 TMDb

Directed by Shunichi Nagasaki

Spoiler-Free

This new version of Nagasaki's Yami utsu shinzô (1982) is neither a remake nor a sequel. It is both those things, and at the same time it is also a documentary, a portrait of the consequences of passing time, and an occasionally very funny reflection on what the hell the point is of all this filmmaking business anyway.
