    Awesome thriller with extreme feelings
    In the Japanese countryside, young girls dream of going to the city find a little job like conductress because of the pretty uniform. But conductress is not so much fun after all. Then they dream about Love... And get lost in a labyrinth of dreams.

    Seems a simple plot but wait...

    That is one of the few psychological thrillers where you keep wondering until the very end if what you think will happen is really going to happen.

    Plus great acting (esp. Tadanobu Asano), plus excellent cinematography, black and white and music just add something to the overall mood.

    Highly recommended!
