Oi, Dazai
Daisuke Sakagami, an ordinary office worker, finds a mysterious app on his phone that can summon the spirits of deceased writers. The first to answer the call is Osamu Dazai himself — an eccentric genius whose quotes now emanate from the smartphone speaker. Together, they navigate this digital anomaly as the app begins attracting other literary ghosts. Blending comedy, sci-fi, and drama, this 2025 TV movie explores the boundaries between technology, creativity, and human connection. The narrative balances absurd situations, like a classic Japanese author giving advice on modern life, with deeper questions about legacy and loneliness in the digital age.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The director employs a minimalist, almost documentary-like approach for mundane scenes, sharply contrasted with the bright, surreal visualization of the app's digital interface. The dialogue thrives on the acute, nearly theatrical clash between contemporary slang and classical literary language.
Those who appreciate genre-blending narratives will find a quiet gem that is both a workplace comedy and a philosophical fable about digital ghosts. What lingers is a peculiar sense that our devices might hold more ancient echoes than we assume. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Koki Mitani
