The Bird Is Calling
People are vanishing from a quiet seaside town. Local officer Kentaro, haunted by his own tragedy, notices a peculiar pattern: each missing person reportedly saw a rare bird with fiery plumage just before disappearing. His investigation leads him to an ancient legend of a "fire-eating bird," but the deeper he digs, the more he realizes the mystery is entangled with his own past. This 2025 drama-mystery horror film delves into the nature of grief, memory, and how the past can consume the present if given an opening.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The director builds dread not with spectacle, but through an anxiety meticulously woven into the fabric of the mundane. The camera lingers in empty spaces, suggesting the threat resides in the silence itself.
Those who appreciate a slow-burn descent into a labyrinth of memory and folklore will find a haunting, melancholic puzzle. What lingers is the chill of an unresolved secret. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Katsuhide Motoki
