SPECIAL SCREENING
GROTESQQQUE
GROTESQQQUE is a completely original animation film from the brilliant mind of Atsushi Nishigori, known for his work as the director for THE IDOLM@STER and DARLING IN THE FRANXX and Chief Animation Director behind the smash hit film that sparked a social phenomenon EVANGELION: 3.0+1.0 THRICE UPON A TIME. This electrifying film embodies Nishigori’s ambition to create something he is passionate about with as much passion as he wants.
SYNOPSIS
Comprising of three episodes – “A(E)LIENS”, “YOROSHIKU Girl”, and “NOCTURNE: NUIT GROTESQUE” – these distorted, uneven, yet infinitely beautiful stories melt and blend together like a chimera, galvanized into motion by the enthralling original score accompanying the film.
