Shinya Tsukamoto’s first period film proves that his gruesome expressionist sensibilities can thrive beyond cyberpunk. Set around the turn of the 20th century, Yukio Daitokuji (Motoki) is a well-to-do doctor in the family business. But tension mounts between the conversative values of his parents and the progressive beliefs held by his amnesiac wife. As the crisis comes to a head, a disreputable doppelganger (also Motoki) appears in his life, and soon a violent conflict breaks out.
