Description:

In this atmospheric and enigmatic film, the seemingly serene landscape of a quaint Japanese town takes on an eerie quality when its residents inexplicably become fixated on spirals. This obsession slowly permeates every aspect of their lives as they begin to see spirals everywhere: in the designs of everyday objects, in patterns found in nature, and even in nightmarish hallucinations. The spiral's influence weaves its way into relationships, causing tension, paranoia, and fear among the community members. The once harmonious town now teeters on the edge of chaos as the meaning behind this spiraling madness remains a tantalizing mystery. With a haunting narrative that delves into themes of psychological pressure, societal norms, and the power of collective imagination, this film masterfully explores how one seemingly innocuous shape can lead to dark and unsettling consequences.
