Synopsis

After a sudden worldwide power cut, a Tokyo family are caught up in a city on the verge of panic. The father decides to escape Tokyo to join relatives living in Kagoshima, and together with his wife, and his two tech-obsessed teenagers, the family embarks on a hilarious journey through the chaos.

MUBI's take

A razor-sharp satire on tech dependency, Shinobu Yaguchi’s feel-good disaster film is an unusual take on the doomsday genre. Ingeniously crafting an intricate vision of a modern-day Japan without electricity, the film is a welcome reminder of family bonds often taken for granted in our modern times.
