The Anonymous Monsters
Kaso Jogi (Japan)
This surreal tale begins with the recruitment of a hapless newcomer to a
rural neighbourhood volunteer association. Responding to a complaint
about noisy frogs, he goes to investigate. He encounters a supernatural
world populated with yokai, mysterious supernatural entities of Japanese
mythology who sing, dance and struggle to coexist with contemporary
human society. The result is a funny sideways look at humans from their
perspective. With wild hand-made costumes, giant sculptural origami
puppets and original music, this is a unique and mind-blowing Japanese
experience for all ages. Performed in Japanese with English surtitles.
