Top 150 Most Anticipated Foreign Films of 2019: #117. We Are Little Zombies – Makoto Nagahisa
We Are Little Zombies
Japan’s Makoto Nagahisa makes his directorial debut with We Are Little Zombies, produced by Shinichi Takahashi, Tahei Tamanishi, Haruki Yokoyama, and Haruhiko Hasegawa. The project is also the feature debut of DP Hiroaki Takeda, who worked on Nagahisa’s award winning 2017 short “And So We Put Goldfish in the Pool” and a cast of newcomers includes Keita Ninomiya, Satoshi Mizuno, Mondo Okumura, and Sena Nakajima who are joined by Rinko Kikucho and Yuki Kudo. Nagahisa was the Short Film Grand Prize Jury Winner at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival.
Gist: Written by Makoto Nagahisa, We Are Little Zombies turns on four 13-year-olds whose parents die and they form a band (which sounds similar to something like Lukas Moodysson’s 2013 title We Are the Best).
Release Date/Prediction: We Are Little Zombies will compete in the World Cinema Dramatic competition at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival.
