Gyakufunsha kazoku

A typically wacky and offbeat Japanese comedy with some near the knuckle moments. Similar to the likes of HAUSU in the crazed energy and character work on offer. This one's a satire of the typical Japanese family and the ill affects of living in a cramped house on their mental health. Amusing interpretations of the usual archetypes give way to increasingly bizarre situations in which our characters seem to be at the mercy of the elements. Not my favourite film, but suffice it to say there's nothing else quite like it.
