In 1984, an up-and-coming writer named Aida Taiju has her career crushed by off-hand criticism from an established author, Higashijujo-sensei. They end up holed up writing in the same hotel historically favoured by authors in the Jimbocho publishing district. Swearing revenge, Taiju makes Higashijujo miss his writing deadline by pretending to be a different person, and entangles her editor into the ruse. They become entangled in a long-lasting feud of revenge where Taiju uses her acting background and pretends to be various different women in order to have her revenge on Higashijujo or blackmail him. Based on a novel by Asako Yuzuki from 2012.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film expertly blends psychological drama with dark comedy, delving into the toxic nature of creative rivalry and the obsessions that can consume a life. The masquerade of identities here transcends mere plot device, becoming a core metaphor for the act of writing itself.

What lingers after the final act is a sharp, cerebral suspense where every line of dialogue feels like a duel, and the aging hotel corridors become a chessboard for a dangerously intimate game. Beneath the calculated revenge lies a raw, almost painful reverence for the written word. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Yukihiko Tsutsumi

🕯️

Best Watched

The hushed tension of writer's block, the soft glow of desk lamps in wood-paneled rooms, a slow-burning intellectual duel.
