COCKROACH MAN
NR 33 min
Theres something thats been bothering Sato lately His cigarettes are dwindling strangely fast He wonders if hes smoking enough for two people Or is there someone else smoking Then he thinks Is there really no one in the room when Im not there Then one day a man in a pair of briefs appears from the wardrobe The man who sometimes tries to fly on the balcony begins to ask practical questions and give his opinion to Sato who spends her days in a state of apathy What is his true identity The world stretches out beyond his sight When he thinks about the overwhelming size of the world he realises how small he is Cutting off all contact with the outside world Sato tries to hide his fear By using subtitles for his conversations with the man the film succeeds in expressing his closed world The humorous touch of the film depicting a small rebirth that took place over a few days was made even more striking by the ending theme music
