Love - Zero = Infinity
1994, dir. Hisayasu Satô
Tōru (Takeshi Itō) is a jobless drifter who spends his days following random strangers in a futile search for companionship. But when he’s hired by a doctor to track his mysterious wife’s (Kiyomi Itō) daily activities, he slowly begins to piece together the disturbing motive behind her movements. As the two grow increasingly aware of the other’s presence, violent desires that blur the lines between intimacy and blood ritual begin to erupt within them.
A modern-day vampire story filtered through legendary filmmaker Hisayasu Satô’s usual themes of urban malaise and voyeurism, Love - Zero = Infinity is as oddly romantic as it is unsettling.
New 2K restoration by Pink Line.
