This psychedelic tour of life after death is seen entirely from the point of view of Oscar, a young American drug dealer and addict living in Tokyo with his prostitute sister, Linda. When Oscar is killed by police during a bust gone bad, his spirit journeys from the past -- where he sees his parents before their deaths -- to the present -- where he witnesses his own autopsy -- and then to the future, where he looks out for his sister from beyond the grave.

🔍 Search on JustWatch →Magical cinema where magic isn't a cheap trick but a way to talk about real things. Behind the external trappings — a serious conversation about power, choice, cost.
More ambition than mastery — but the ambition is there. Several genuinely impressive scenes outweigh the failures.
For genre fans and those who want to temporarily inhabit another world. Pragmatists and skeptics — wrong place.
