天使的胆量

拥有四万公顷山林和土地、价值七百亿日元的82岁老妇人柳川敏子被三个胆大妄为的年轻人诱拐、劫持。三人提出老人的赎身价为五千万日元，柳川敏子勃然大怒：“痛痛快快要一百亿好了，也免得给后代们丢脸。”不知所措的年轻人反而央求柳川把数额减少一些，决不让步的柳川则开始信心十足地指挥起这场“诱拐战”。警察局长井狩要求通过电视现场直播让柳川与家人见面，以确认其是否安全。柳川则巧妙地指挥电视转播车开到隔谷相见的山间，通过电视指示家人将山林和土地变卖筹款。一百亿日元装上了直升机，柳川又声东击西甩开警察，指挥飞机将钱运到了指定的地点。安全回到家中的柳川内心所感慨的其实是：当自己死后，财产的70%将作为继承税被国家白白掠去，而被拐走一百亿就可以使一百亿财产不被征税。这也就是她利用被诱拐的机会假戏真做的真正原因。

伊萨克是一位为美国宇航局工作的年轻科学家，他通过工作中的一颗卫星意外地接收到来自太空的神秘信号，从而解决了日常生活中的困难。当他开始调查坠机地点时，他的整个世界都颠倒了——他被外星人绑架了。他发现他的相机就在他旁边，意识到他把整件事都录下来了。现在唯一的问题是当他试图告诉他最亲近的人，他们不相信他。

Aki and Naoko are childhood friends who are drifting apart as adults. Immersed in her family life, Naoko now has a husband and daughter; Aki, on the other hand, remains single and is on leave from work due to a personal crisis. The plot might sound familiar but it has never been told like this. The director Kusano Natsuka stages the interactions through an actors’ table-read and, as the lines are repeated, the scenes gradually develop into on-location conversations. Moreover, she repositions the dramatic peak of the story to the beginning: Aki has murdered Naoko’s daughter.Structurally inventive, Kusano's daring cinema implements ‘distantiation’ effects to get to the heart of friendship issues at times when life has settled. While the repetitions convey the suffocation of role patterns in both friendship and family, a line left out or added in unsettles and reminds us life can take unexpected turns.
