The Box Man

赤タイツ男

In the strange world of Imiri Sakabashira, zoomorphic creatures emerge from one another and from their equally bizarre surroundings. A guide, an anthropomorphic mollusk-like cat, leads the protagonists on a scooter trip through a landscape that shifts between a dense city, a countryside reduced to near abstraction, and hybrids of the two.

The theme of hybridity permeates every aspect of this world, where creatures like half-elderly-man-half-crab and flying frogs are commonplace. As the journey unfolds, the line between the animate and inanimate, the real and imagined, blurs. Sakabashira weaves an absurdist tale from elements of Japanese folklore, pop culture, and surrealism, creating a nearly wordless psychedelic travelogue.
