Happyend

When two friends play a brilliant prank at school, the principal is not amused – but it does give the administration the perfect opportunity to install an intrusive surveillance system, monitoring the students’ every move and issuing draconian punishments for infractions. While some students become increasingly politicised and rebellious, others seem unaffected, leading to rifts even amongst the best of friends. The young, predominantly non-professional cast give vibrant, authentic performances, capturing the frustrations and insecurity faced by today’s youth. With impeccable craft and ideas stretching far beyond the frame, director Neo Sora (Ryuichi Sakamoto: Opus) has fashioned an elegant allegory for our time.
