Evil Does Not Exist
“Don't upset the balance.”
Drama
Takumi and his daughter Hana live in Mizubiki Village, close to Tokyo. One day, the village inhabitants become aware of a plan to build a camping site near Takumi's house offering city residents a comfortable "escape" to nature.
VIBE
A quietly unsettling meditation on the delicate balance between nature and human ambition. It evokes a serene, wintery beauty, yet beneath the surface, a profound unease simmers. The film feels deeply reflective, drawing you into its atmospheric world with a deliberate, almost hypnotic rhythm, exploring the subtle tensions of coexistence.
