爱情与

大都市梅陀宝丽斯，被称之为本时代进步象征的超级摩天大厦正在举行落成典礼。手握本市实权的RED先生（石田太郎 配音）台上演讲正酣，台下一名黑衣青年男子ROCK（冈田浩晖 配音）却在警备重重下公然拔枪杀人，群众一阵哗然骚乱。目睹此事的日本侦探伴俊作，携外甥剑一（小林桂 配音），开始进行全市的追凶调查。但是ROCK被判明只是射杀了机器人，凶手若无其事的离去了。梅陀宝丽斯由先进的地上部分和颓败的地下部分构成二重结构的都市体系，在这个城市生存的人类中间，有从高度发达的机器人世界中受益，享受文明技术优越性的人，也有反之被机器人夺走工作无以糊口的人，还有要求让机器人同样享有人权自由的群众团体。随着调查的深入，实施的真相渐渐浮出水面，机器人和人类最终是一起平等生存，还是一起毁灭……本片改编自手冢治虫出版于1949年的同名漫画。

改编自H.P.Lovecraft的小说《查尔斯·德克特·沃德案件》，标题则取自爱伦坡《厄舍府之倒塌》中提及的诗歌闹鬼的宫殿。

Kato is an aspiring screenwriter treading water. He spends his days pitching stories to offbeat agents and executives who are anything but impressed. Not that he has run out of ideas, they just don’t seem to go anywhere. Unlike his relationship with his girlfriend Zigzag – that one is going down the drain. Little does Kato – or anyone – know that life is about to take some seriously weird turns.While out to buy the special brand of food for his girlfriend’s dog Cerberus, Kato discovers an abandoned convenience store that transforms his trajectory. A stumble into a refrigerator catapults him into a realm of fantastical inspiration boosted by an eccentric couple he meets along the way. Might this be the key to getting his mojo back?Miki Satoshi (Adrift in Tokyo, What to Do with the Dead Kaiju?) returns with a surreal and quirky indie film that manages to be both charming and deeply philosophical. Teaming up with Japanese cinema expert and notable critic for The Japan Times Mark Schilling (Art, Cult and Commerce: Japanese Cinema Since 2000), Convenience Story takes you on an eccentric Dantean ride brimming with psychological tension and the zest of karma. From the purgatory of writer’s block, to a hell of an adventure, Kato’s journey is a satisfying and thoughtful tale.源自：
