KRASUE (2021) | Ryo Hirano

KRASUE (2021,12min)-Trailer

In a town of SouthEast Asia, at night, a Yakuza is facing a bloody conflict with local gangs. During the fight, he encounters with a ghost called Krasue(pronounced Gasoo), a flying woman head with her guts exposed, and being followed by her because of his blood taste.

Their battle eventually leads themselves to the depth of dark and damp jungle maze, where their boundary seems to fade, regardless of what they are, humans, animals or a ghost.

With howling noise, “BOY MEETS GIRL” metamorphoses into “Encounter with another species”.
