Our Misconduct

About This Movie

Our Misconduct is a rather intriguing take on the concept of time manipulation, layered with a unique blend of coming-of-age themes and the more risqué aspects of desire. You’ve got Yuki Minami, who struggles with deep-seated feelings of inadequacy, and the realization that every moment of halted time comes with its own consequences, namely a rising 'lust counter.' The atmosphere feels a bit surreal, maybe even dreamlike at times, and it plays well with some interesting practical effects that give it a raw edge. The pacing might feel off to some, but it reflects the anxiety of impending exams and social pressures. Performances are poignant, leaving a mark that lingers as you think about the implications of Minami’s choices.

Our Misconduct is a film that's still not widely distributed, making it a bit of a hidden gem for collectors. It has had limited screenings, so finding a physical copy in good condition is becoming more challenging. The lack of clarity around its director and genre only adds to its mystique, drawing interest from those who appreciate the unconventional or offbeat narratives. It’s the kind of film that might spark discussion among collectors, primarily due to its unusual premise and execution.
