Big Bang Love, Juvenile A
A visually stylish tale of two male prisoners bonded by emotion, love and murder.
Directed by Takashi Miike
Produced by Shochiku, Maki Production
A visually avant-garde, surreal exploration of desire and violence in a juvenile detention setting, prioritizing stylistic experimentation over narrative clarity.
An unknown future. A boy confesses to the murder of another in an all-boy juvenile detention facility. More an exercise in style than storytelling, the story follows two detectives trying to uncover the case. Homosexual tension and explosive violence drives the story which delivers some weird and fascinating visuals.
