247) JINSEI 無名の人生 
(2026 dir. Ryuya Suzuki) Date Seen: June 12 2026
Profound in its own way as termite art.. 
JINSEI's awe-inspiring in its 100% homemade DIYness, & as a story, it's an unusual meditation on the fragmented self + capitalism. Maybe it does get a little too bullheaded in how existentially surreal it wants to be at parts, but I never found it outright indecipherable. It actually has a lot of parallels to Folman's THE CONGRESS.

It's a bummer that bad stuff that happens to us when we're young never really leaves completely.
