ComedyDocumentaryDramaAnimation

The Yonemoto brothers recast Oedipus through a Japanese folk story, pairing it with the water imp Kappa. Citing Buñuel, Freud and pop culture, they blend psychosexual symbols with a cultural backdrop. Mike Kelley is the eerie Kappa, Mary Woronov a vampish Jocasta. Rendered in degraded visuals, the film probes loss, desire and the power of archetypes.
