Kotoko (2012)

wow... i finished it now. what should i say? I´m speechless.
what a movie !


this isn´t a typical (horror) movie. it´s more a movie who wants you to open the eyes for the reality.
don´t watch it if you look for a one who should entertain you.
it´s a very deep one. with a statement for the life.

the scenes are very intense. so sad and sometimes soo creepy.
you will understand me when you see the parts with the boyfriend.
i was soo excited what happend next, because the mainrole was so unpredictable.

i liked her voice =) thanks to her voice, i was able to feel her emotions, and her feelings about her medicine: music.
thats why i give a 9 to music.


i don´t know if i can go to bed now, and sleep very well because i must think over and over about this movie. very intense.

good one.

I noticed this movie only had one review so i thought i had to write one.
If you want an adjective to qualify "Kotoko", withering is the one. Whenever you're ready or not to watch a movie this moving, you definitely should. Honesty when i started it i didn't really know what to expect, but as time went by and as the movie slowly unfolded i started to realize that nothing could've prepared me for that.
"Kotoko" isn't a movie you forget, it stays deeply engraved in your soul.
I'm not even going to talk about the graphics, the only silence scenes and the director being a character.
Watching this kind of movie once in a while really hits you hard and makes you feel so little next to struggles like kotokos'.
From the beggining you immediately discover a new world, a world where only Kotoko's child matters . Every single person, you, me, the passer-by, the neighbour and Kotoko herself, is only a little piece in this world that spends their time fulfilling the empty holes of her own life. Kotoko is a woman who wants to live despite her sickness, but her battles become harder to fight as she only wishes for a thing : to take care of her son which is impossible because she slowly becomes dangerous for him.
Kotoko sees the world in double, everything in her head is a mess.. except when she starts singing, her two eyes merge together to offer an unique vision of herself, the world and everything that is around her.
I watched this movie almost a year ago and i still often think about it. Although there are numerous scenes of violence, this movie teaches you that the worst part of healing is hitting rock bottom, and sometimes you bring people down with you too.
I don't think my words are enough to describe and tell how much this movie means to me and how much it can change you as a person ; unfortunately "Kotoko" isn't talked about so not a lot of people are aware of this masterpiece but if you have been thinking about watching it, don't think twice, go ahead Kotoko's waiting for you.
