A trilogy of directors and films assorted together on one catalogue reference. The big surprise here is the follow-up movie from the Director of Survival Style 5+; Gen Sekiguchi and this SOMEHOW being his only follow-up movie since!
He's started making advertisements and this is really sad as I adored Survival Style 5+ but it just bombed in the box-office!
I'm ever so grateful for the team at Third Window Films for allowing me this unique opportunity to see these movies together! How Gen Sekiguchi is not asked to do more movies is really sad for me as he is indeed a special talent in my eyes!
I adored that there was two male and two female directors shown. I loved the short pieces and the quirkyness of the movies. Sure it was not ground-breaking but it was fun and very original and entertaining with morality values and other aspects.
The love stories between characters were incredibly sweet and I loved the character development in all of the segments. It is hard to rate these movies and they were very low-budget titles. I will give a strong 7/10.
