RoboGeisha

In a sleek, near‑future Japan where neon‑lit streets pulse beneath centuries‑old wooden facades, tradition collides with technology in the most unsettling of ways. Two sisters, Yoshie and Kikue, have spent their lives immersed in the disciplined world of geisha—masters of grace, art, and subtle influence. Their bond, forged in the quiet rituals of tea and song, is suddenly shattered when a shadowy organization sweeps them away, promising a destiny far removed from the teahouses of their youth.

The abductors offer a chilling blend of ancient aesthetic and cutting‑edge engineering, turning the sisters’ refined skills into the foundation for something far more lethal. Within a hidden laboratory of glowing steel and whispered incantations, their bodies are augmented with cybernetic enhancements, transforming the delicate silhouettes of geisha into formidable, mechanized assassins. The result is a striking visual contrast: silk kimono threads interwoven with cold metal, polished circuitry hidden beneath polished lacquer.

As the sisters grapple with their new reality, the film balances a tone that is both elegant and unsettling. The polished poise of their former lives lingers, even as they navigate a world where beauty can be weaponized and loyalty is tested by the whisper of servos and the hum of hidden turbines. Their relationship becomes the emotional core of a story that hints at the cost of melding humanity with machinery, inviting viewers to wonder whether the sisters will retain the spirit of their art amid the relentless pulse of a cyber‑enhanced underworld.
