The Insects Unlisted in the Encyclopedia
Comedy
A freelance magazine writer (Yusuke Iseya) is assigned the strange task of having a near-death experience and writing an article about it. With the help of his stoner buddy Endo (Suzuki Matsuo) and a former S&M club worker Sayoko (Rinko Kikuchi) he tracks down a drug harvested by a strange breed of beetle that lets him see what it’s like to be dead. Strangely though, he discovers it’s not all that much different from being alive.
