Happyend

In a near-future Tokyo where the threat of a catastrophic earthquake pervades daily life, two rabble-rousing best friends are about to graduate from high school. One night, they pull a consequential prank on their principal, which leads to a surveillance system being installed in the school. Between the oppressive security system and a darkening national political situation, the two react differently, leading them to confront differences that they never had to face before.

Screening with a recorded introduction by director Neo Sora, director of Ryuichi Sakamoto | Opus and winner of the Young Cinema Award for Happyend at the 17th Asia Pacific Screen Awards.
