Let’s watch “CLOUD” by Kiyoshi Kurosawa @ Gene Siskel + dinner

Details

WE ARE GOING TO THE 5.45 SHOW- CURE and PULSE are probably Kiyoshi Kurosawas best known films. If you are not familiar with this Japanese director, please do some quick online search to make sure his movies are your cup of tea.

A Tokyo factory worker buys anything and everything he can get his hands on—knock off handbags, junk collectibles, medical supplies—and then, under a pseudonym, resells it online at inflated prices to desperate buyers. As his web business takes off, he quits his job, moves to the country with his girlfriend Akiko, and hires an assistant to support his growing success. But when dissatisfied customers begin harassing him online and then track down his real identity, CLOUD’s petty-crime narrative deftly transitions into a thrilling and violent cautionary tale.

WE’LL MEET AT 5.20 ON THE 2nd FL. AFTER THE SHOW, WE’LL GO FOR DINNER AND DISCUSSION.
