The movie
Liza is a young nurse who is unhappy in love. The reason ? All her lovers seem to die in unexplained circumstances. Could she be a "fox-fairy", a Chinese demon who takes control of human beings ? The ghost of a Japanese rock star — her imaginary friend — is unsure he can be of help… Unconcerned with genre boundaries, the film offers so many ideas that watching it is like witnessing an explosion of visual ingeniousness. Plus, who doesn’t like songs ?
