Takashi Miike Film Screening: The Happiness of the Katakura
Major Choices and the Wilson College Film Society present a film screening of "The Happiness of the Katakuris", 12/12/12, 7pm–9pm in the Wilcox Hall BlackBox. Japanese with English subtitles. Film followed by discussion.
Food will be served. Free and open to the public.
Warning: These films contain extreme and graphic depictions of violence, sexual acts, and human bodily functions. Viewer discretion is strongly advised.
The Katakuris are a family. They own a hotel. The only path that leads to it is the path of a volcano. The Katakuris have just one guest. And then he dies. They SING A SONG. More guests arrive. They die, as well. The Katakuris get rid of the bodies. Then, they DO A DANCE. More things go wrong. They SING MORE SONGS. The dead return. And JOIN THE DANCE. More deaths. More songs. More trouble. More dancing. The Katakuris are happy. IN THE FACE OF DEATH, WHAT CAN YOU DO BUT CELEBRATE LIFE?
