Recently, Xiaobian chased a suspenseful Japanese drama "Invisible Face", and watched six episodes in one breath, which was very enjoyable.
The drama is based on Hiroshi Maekawa's novel of the same name, which had previously been adapted into a movie titled "Creepy".
The Japanese drama "Invisible Face" Douban score is 8.4, and the reputation is good!
The director of the drama is Junichi Mori, and the healing films he directed, "Little Forest Summer and Autumn" and "Little Forest Winter and Spring", I believe many people have seen it more than once. Film directors make TV series, first of all, they have an absolute advantage in visual presentation.
Junichi Mori is best at lens language. Let the camera replace the narration and pave the way for the details of the story.
It is no exaggeration to say that every shot of "Invisible Face" is comparable to the level of cinema in terms of texture.
For example, the long overhead shots used to present the entire neighborhood scene are impressive. The director cuts in from the perspective of an indifferent God, rendering the atmosphere with cool tones and creating a thrilling effect.
"Invisible Face" mainly tells the story of the wife of university professor Seiji Hirokawa (Played by Oda Chejō), who died of illness, and on the night of the funeral, a mysterious woman visited him and offered to talk to his wife.
Later, the president of Hirokawa's university also died suddenly, and the election of the new chief triggered a series of suspicions.
Bodies were also found in the garbage heap in the neighborhood where Hirokawa lived, some people were missing, some people committed suicide... Strange things are more and more, and terror and uneasiness are spreading little by little.
"Invisible Face" is very enjoyable to chase. From the first episode, the show has made big moves, opened the brain hole, and released three main character lines in one brain. Although the plot is not fast-paced, the 45-minute plot of an episode is full of information, and a little attention will miss many key details.
The thick editor summed up the three plot lines for everyone.
The first main line: The male protagonist is Oda, who plays the university professor Seiji Hirokawa.
The first scene of the plot is a scene where Hirosekawa and his sister-in-law have an affair, and the two actually miss the distress call from Hirokawa's wife who is seriously ill because they are concentrating on driving.
As soon as the camera pans, the couple appear at the funeral of Hirosekawa's wife, crying heart-rending.
It turns out that the male protagonist and the sister-in-law are teachers in the same university, and although the sister-in-law is a very capable woman on the surface, she is actually inferior and distorted because of her mother, who has a strong desire to control.
The sister-in-law relationship between Hirosegawa's wife and sister-in-law also seems to be relatively plastic, they are not as harmonious as they seem, and even the sister-in-law's intention to approach Hirokazu is a kind of revenge for her sister.
The most dramatic thing is that the video of the male protagonist and the sister-in-law cheating on each other was filmed and posted online. The sister-in-law was so emotional because of this that she even wanted to take a knife and kill the male protagonist.
The second main line: female middle school student Shinoda (Played by Yamada Kona).
Shinoda's mother has been seriously ill for many years, and she does not go to the hospital but indulges in folk treatment "stacking methods". (Xiaobian explains that folding hands is a brainwashing exercise, using faith to deceive people).)
Shinoda's father sent his mother to the hospital and came back with a strange behavior, and then disappeared, and his mother disappeared from the hospital. Shinoda's father seems to distrust the women in the neighborhood and is only willing to entrust his daughter to the male protagonist's care.
Shinoda finds his mother, who is waiting for the treatment of the folding technique, with the help of Ryoko Doda (Makoto). While observing her mother undergoing the overlapping manipulation treatment, Shinoda was almost brainwashed. Put forward want to learn to fold hands.
So the question is: why did Shinoda learn to fold hands? What's wrong with her?
Although Shinoda did well in school, he was under a lot of pressure. Students in the class will be ranked according to popularity and family status, and the last one at the end will be called "garbage" and bullied by the whole class.
Thinking about the fear of the barbarian queen, Shinoda almost went down the old path of his mother because of weakness, thanks to the warning given by the female nurse Cai Caimei (Kuroshima Yucai) to wake up.
The third main line: the female nurse of the hospital is cai caimei.
She falls in love with a hypocritical cowherd and owes millions of dollars in debt in order to go on a date at the cowherd's shop.
While worrying about debt, Cai Cai mei met her former classmates. Classmates want her to sell soap to develop offline, although Cai Cai Mei does not want to sell but because of encouragement and compromise, when she was about to sign the self-proclaimed lawyer Tsuchida Ryoko suddenly appeared, help Cai Cai Mei break the siege, and also introduced her to a new job.
Cai Caimei's new job is to assist Noriko Tsuchida in hand-folding treatment for patients.
Cai Caimei still has a brain, and soon finds out that the folding hand treatment is actually a scam, and the first person she rescues is Shinoda.
Xiaobian feels that these three main lines are full of points to see, and with the development of the plot, everyone will find that these three main lines overlap each other, creating more suspense points.
For example, the male protagonist found that it was his sister-in-law who persuaded his wife who was not in good health to move to the community of "Rest Town" to recuperate, his neighbor was the shinoda family of a female middle school student, and the father of the female nurse Cai Caimei was the police who investigated the murder in this community.
What's even more bizarre is that the 3 consecutive deaths in this community also seem to be related to the stacking method.
The first was Hirokawa's wife, who died of illness, the second was Mrs. Hato, a neighbor who hanged herself, and the third was an unnatural death that appeared unexpectedly in the garbage heap of the community, all of whom seemed to be involved in hand-folding treatment.
The neighborhood of "Rest Town" is even more suspicious, because every household has installed cameras, but instead of guarding against thieves on the street, it is each family shooting at each other, as if monitoring each other.
Isn't it scary to think about!! Many small partners think that "Invisible Face" does not lose the American drama in the suspense setting, and the editor also feels the same way. Regarding the plot, the editor does not have too many spoilers, this drama only has six episodes, and everyone has time to chase after it by themselves.
