This disturbing Japanese thriller follows Aoyama, a widower who, at the insistence of his son, decides to start dating again. Aided by a film-producer friend, Aoyama uses auditions for a fake production to function as a dating service. When Aoyama becomes intrigued by the withdrawn, gorgeous Asami, they begin a relationship. However, he begins to realize that Asami isn’t as reserved as she appears to be, leading to gradually increased tension and a harrowing climax.

Order of the Illusive is Zach Layton (17 string bass and electronics), Geoff Gersh (guitar and electronics), Bradford Reed (pencilina, percussion, electronics). They have been creating music for the moving picture since 2012.

They have a modern approach to live scoring using the sounds of experimental and ambient rock (ie. Can, Mogwai, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Sunn O))), Pink Floyd and Brian Eno) to bring the experience of silent film to contemporary audiences.
