Five Filosophical Fables

1970 · 47 mins

Donald Richie’s classic is, in the words of Yukio Mishima, an outrageous farce, and a pitiless indictment of all our false ‘human’ values. As an allegory of an ‘all-consuming’ Tokyo family cannibalizing each other in a Tokyo park, it attains the highest reaches of black humour.

Director: Donald Richie

Cast: Hiroyasu Sasaki, Jiro Yagi, Miiko Kiinjo, Rari Mitsuhashi, Teiiji Endo
