About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours

dir: Nobuhiko Obayashi - 1981 - 1 hr 30 min

Mitamura Yuka is a normal, shy high school student. Except for the fact that she has psychic powers. When a new student with similar powers begins to show her skills, creating a force of psychic Nazi student enforcers, Yuka and her friends vow to stop her. One part Shojo Manga and one part SCANNERS at a highschool, Nobuhiko Obayashi brings his visual madness from his cult classic HOUSE with an emotional core of adolescence, finding oneself, and fighting authoritarianism.

High-Brow/Low-Brow/Uni-Brow is a monthly film series programmed by Andrew Linn dedicated to exploring films from every corner of taste and seeing what they have to say with each other.
