Bilocation
Directed by Mari Asato
Produced by KADOKAWA, Pony Canyon
A paranoid, existentially unsettling mystery about identity and duality, where ordinary people confront the horror of being replaced by inexplicable doubles.
Shinobu Takamura is an aspiring painter. One day, she is accused of using counterfeit money. Shinobu is confused by the allegation, because she never did such a thing and was at home when the crime occurred. Police Officer Kanou then appears and takes her to a place. When they get there, a group of people are already gathered. All of the people there are concerned over a doppelganger like existence that looks just like them and acts like them. They call that existence "bilocation".
