Hi everyone I watched Kotoko yesterday, expecting it to be a straightforward horror film. Oh boy it was not. It was probably one of the hardest film watches I have ever had to sit through but Christ I am so glad I did because it's such a great fucking movie. I don't know if anyone else in here has seen it but I think I came out of that 90 minutes a completely new man. The directing style paired so perfectly with the subject matter... It didn't feel like there was much of a story to it but I honestly didn't need there to be, I was so invested in the reality it presented and the life of the woman it follows. If anyone plans on looking into it I highly recommend reading up on some trigger warnings because there are a couple shots in particular that I wasn't expecting that got to me but if you can stomach it it's such a fuckin' experience, in the best possible way.
