7/10
Thankfully it’s a short feature – about 77 minutes in total – because I’m not sure the tension could be built any longer than it is. Go to Full Review

08/24/2017 Psychological thriller. Two aspiring actresses are rooming together in an apartment while waiting the decision on which one gets the part in an upcoming movie. The movie unveils their characters and background, with tension and action building up and leading to violence. A somewhat surprising, but poetic ending. The acting and cinematography are good. Plot is simple, but characters are well-rounded. I recommend it.

Si Tsutsumi Yukihiko se débrouille plutôt bien dans la partie plus musclée, c'est néanmoins le premier acte qui marque le plus, tant la violence et la tension ne demandent qu'à exploser, à grands renforts de plans insensés et de musique tonitruante. Koike Eiko & Nonami Maho sont excellentes. Peut-être pas indispensable, mais sacrément original. See more 10/10/2012 This is the definition of a simple storyline turned into brilliant satire.
