Eastern Promises Kurosawa Kiyoshi's Seance
Eastern Promises is excited to screen Kurosawa Kiyoshi's "Seance", A crime story enmeshed in a ghost story, equally as creepy, and haunting, as it is tragic.
"Koji Sato (Kōji Yakusho) is a mild-mannered sound technician who is married to Junko (Jun Fubuki), a waitress who possesses powerful psychic abilities. Though these abilities allow her to see and communicate with spirits, they interfere in her day-to-day life and make it difficult for her to hold down a normal job. Eventually, Junko becomes involved with a police search for a young girl kidnapped by a deranged ex-cop. But through a bizarre coincidence, the young girl escapes her captor and takes refuge in Koji's equipment case, unbeknownst to him. When the couple discover the unconscious child at their home, they devise a plan to keep her hidden, while Junko gradually leads the police to her. They reason that this will prove Junko's psychic abilities to the public, and also ensure that they are not falsely blamed for the kidnapping."
