Sana
Directed by Takashi Shimizu
Produced by Shochiku, Booster Project
A paranoid, atmospheric horror mystery centered on a cursed melody that spreads contagion-like through those who hear it, building dread through ambiguity rather than explicit violence.
Takashi Shimizu's newest film is about a mysterious cassette tape containing a melody. People who hear this melody gradually begin to hum it themselves and become involved in a mysterious incident. What is the mystery behind this melody ?
