在异国

　　Alors que Julie pense décrocher un CDI dans une fabrique d'escarpins de luxe, un plan social vient chambouler ses rêves de stabilité : entre lutter aux côtés d'ouvrières frondeuses ou bien faire profil bas, la jeune femme ne sait sur quel pied danser. Mais quand Samy, un camionneur aussi roublard que charmeur, vient prêter main forte au combat, ce n'est déjà plus la même chanson…

　　Murayama Kaita, a Japanese painter, novelist and poet died in 1919 at the age of 22, leaving behind an impressive and time-defying body of work. In his most recent film, Sato Hisayasu offers a surreal, time-crossing, meta-layered essay on the artist, his originality and his legacy.
　　Dear Kaita Ablaze brings together a young woman Azami obsessed with Murayama's painting, a young man Saku, who can hear unusual frequencies and claims to be Murayama or his spiritual imprint and a quartet of young performers with psychic abilities. They bond over Murayama’s work which they recreate in performative dance while driving to a mysterious cave called Agartha.
　　Sato Hisayasu (The Eye's Dream, Muscle, The Bedroom), renowned for his pinku and exploration of madness and lust, returns to IFFR. Dear Kaita Ablaze is hyper-dense, obsessive and driven, effortlessly mashing surrealism with sci-fi and mysticism, layering seemingly unrelated events and encounters to bring them together in a monumental climax.
