Japan, 2024, directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa | 124 min

This stylish, subversive thriller from suspense maverick Kiyoshi Kurosawa (Cure, Pulse) follows Yoshii, an ambitious young factory worker from Tokyo who side hustles in the murky world of online reselling, misleading buyers and sellers alike.

After swindling his way into stacks of cash, Yoshii tries to escape the crowded city by moving to the suburbs with his girlfriend, entrusting his business duties to a new assistant. Soon, however, mysterious incidents begin to threaten his security as the reality of his crimes creeps closer than he ever imagined.

At once a pulse-pounding provocation and a cautionary tale for our atomized, hustle-economy era, Cloud is a scary, genre-bending vision of real-world consequences, crafted with precision and dark, edgy humor. In Japanese with English subtitles.

"A hyper-lucid, fantastically kinetic, brilliant action movie." – David Erlich, IndieWire
