Cain's Descendant
After doing some time in prison, a timid, a quiet young man named Munakata (played by actor / director Kazushi Watanabe) arrives at the industrial city of Kawasaki in the hope of finding a new course for his life. In his new job, which consists in monotonously welding small parts with tin, and in a place almost as small as the room where he sleeps and watches TV, he comes across some strange characters. Later on, he'll see himself involved in a war between gangs, and in the dirty deals hidden behind the smokescreen of his job, while part of his past is revealed. But not much more. A film as mysterious as its title, swinging between wry humor and constant surprise, which confirms its director as one of the promises of today's Japanese cinema.
