Japanese Comedy WE ARE LITTLE ZOMBIES Trailer

Oscilloscope has released the trailer for Makoto Nagahisa‘s upcoming comedy We Are Little Zombies, which concerns a group of orphans who form a band and take the country by storm.

We are Little Zombies premiered at this year’s Sundance and will be in theaters sometime this year.

When four young orphans—Hikari, Ikuko, Ishi, and Takemura—first meet, their parents’ bodies are being turned into dust, like fine Parmesan atop a plate of spaghetti Bolognese, and yet none of them can shed a tear. They are like zombies; devoid of all emotion. With no family, no future, no dreams, and no way to move forward, the young teens decide that the first level of this new existence involves salvaging a gaming console, an old electric bass, and a charred wok from their former homes—just enough to start a band-and then conquer the world. Tragedy, comedy, music, social criticism, and teenage angst are all subsumed in this eccentric cinematic tsunami.
