The Gesuidouz
Japan / 2024 / 93 min
In Japanese with English subtitles
Toronto International Film Festival

Hanako has dreamed that her misfit horror-themed punk band The Gesuidouz will perform at Glastonbury Festival and, just like her heroes Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain, she will die at 27. With a year left until her deadline, she and her band are offered by their record label to live in a rural farm, where they can focus on creating the greatest punk anthem that will realise their dream. From rising cult filmmaker Kenichi Ugana, this inspiring sardonic offbeat comedy marries midnight movies and punk rock that is filled with deadpan humour and sublime musical energy.
