Wrong Revision

About This Movie

So 'Wrong Revision' is a documentary that's quite the strange beast. It weaves this odd tale based on Ryunosuke Akutagawa's short story. The story dives into how the devil allegedly came to Japan with St. Xavier, and the way it twists into this octopus metaphor is just fascinating. The pacing feels a bit slow at times, but it builds this eerie atmosphere, especially when it explores themes of oppression and spirituality among Japanese Christians in the 17th century. The practical effects, though subtle, add a layer of intrigue. It’s not your typical documentary vibe; it’s cerebral, contemplative, and oddly compelling. And the lack of a known director kind of adds to its mystique, don't you think?

Interesting take on Akutagawa's work.Explores religious themes in a unique way.Atmospheric storytelling with intriguing visuals.
