The debut film of Ryohei Watanabe, director of The Cinderella Addiction
Because of her last name ‘Kumada’ (bear + rice paddy) and her appearance, Misa’s high school classmates call her “Pooh” disparagingly. She obviously has no friends and can only let down her guard around her pet parrot and the goldfish in the science room at school. But then she finds herself quickly becoming best friends with Izumi, a cute and popular classmate. Although somewhat puzzled by Izumi’s interest in her, Misa is excited about having a friend for the first time ever. But Izumi’s initial angelic demeanour gradually transforms into a demonic one.

FAQs
High school is often the setting for character dramas, romances, ghost stories, and even delinquent youth action films, in Japan. Here, a sudden friendship that sparks at school gradually descends into a dark and violent nightmare. It's a film rarely talked about in terms of Japanese horror films and thrillers - but it is just as effective as any that are released and nominated for awards, often with much larger budgets. Highly recommended.
