Provocative, audacious and visionary, Gaspar Noe (Irreversible) pushes the boundaries of hallucinatory cinema with this exploration of sex, drugs, life and death. A brother and sister scratch out a living in Tokyo’s underworld–Oscar’s a small-time dealer, Linda (Paz de la Huerta, The Limits of Control) is an exotic dancer. One night, a police bust goes horribly wrong, and Oscar is shot. But as he lies dying,his spirit refuses to leave the world. Instead, it wanders through the city, its visions growing ever more distorted and nightmarish.
