Groper Train: Tight Underwear, directed by Kazuyoshi Sekine, dives into the murky depths of societal norms and personal boundaries. Takeo, your average university student, becomes entwined in a tense situation when he encounters Kaoru, an office lady facing unwanted attention on a packed train. The film’s atmosphere is thick with anxiety, reflecting the claustrophobia of urban life. The pacing is slow yet deliberate, allowing for moments of introspection, making Takeo's internal struggle palpable. While the practical effects are minimal, the performances feel raw and unfiltered. What stands out here is the exploration of masculinity and the moral dilemmas faced when witnessing harassment. It’s a quirky choice for collectors interested in the complexities of human interactions.
