Kaïro

Programme(s) : Kiyoshi Kurosawa
Japan
2001





A mysterious epidemic seems to wreak havoc on Tokyo and perhaps even on the whole country. In fact, all the people who have been in contact with some video images from unknown origins die for no apparent reasons – their bodies vanishing in the air afterwards. Two young people, some friends of whom were among the first victims, decide to investigate.
