Takehiro Shindo in his second feature film “Closet” addresses the issues that now, in the times of pandemic, after or in-between lockdowns cum other restrictions of social activities, seem disturbingly up-to-date. In the center of his interest lies loneliness, the need for the presence of other people, and crave for somebody else’s touch.
Closet is screening at Camera Japan
The director tells about mundane eccentrics through the story of Tasuku, a troubled young man from Tokyo. Tasuku, experiencing some rough phases of his life, finds a new and quite unusual job. He becomes a “soine” – a person, who cuddles clients suffering from insomnia before sleep. Soine’s code of conduct is strict. They give just comforting embraces, without any erotic connotations no matter how attractive the patron is. Sex with a client is not an option. But to the details of the job, they need to be flexible and creative.
