      New Religion

      2022 1h 40m Drama Horror Sci-Fi List
      100% 5 Reviews Tomatometer After her daughter's death in an accident, Miyabi gets a divorce, starts working as a call girl and moves in with her new boyfriend. In a meeting with a new customer, he asks to take a picture of her body -- first her spine, then, her feet, and after that, he begins to photograph her every time they meet. One day, while at home, Miyabi feels a small hand touching her leg and soon realizes that every time she allows her body to be photographed she can feel her daughter's spirit reaching closer and closer. Soon, only her eyes remain to be captured, leading to the outcome which defines this unique art-house fantasy from a culture-shocking Japanese voice.

      Ard Vijn ScreenAnarchy At the end, there was plenty to discuss with the people I saw it with. Is this a classic? No, but if Kondo Keishi ends up making classics, New Religion will go into history as the very promising debut which foretold this. Rated: 7/10 Oct 13, 2023 Full Review Nuha Hassan Hear Us Scream The concept is attractive and conjures an incredible execution of illusion versus reality. New Religion has nuanced performances by Seto and Oka, and the latter keeps the audience guessing about his true motivations. Sep 8, 2023 Full Review Sarah Musnicky Nightmarish Conjurings NEW RELIGION easily finds its way under the skin with its stunning visuals, distorted soundscape, and overwhelming tragedy. Rated: 3/5 Jun 20, 2023 Full Review Kat Hughes THN Electric and intoxicating elements combine to create an immersive sensory and emotional overload. Rated: 5/5 Apr 6, 2023 Full Review Anton Bitel Projected Figures Keishi Kondo’s feature debut offers entomological snapshots of a mother’s deepest grief, delusion and dreams Apr 5, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
