Happyend
Programme Type: Film|Length: 113 mins| Cert: 
Set in a dystopian near-future Tokyo, Neo Sora’s striking feature explores a group of teenagers rebelling against societal expectations.
The film offers a vivid coming-ofage portrait, following best friends Yuta and Kou as they confront a world where AI surveillance is tightening under the yoke of oppressive authoritarianism.
Infused with raw energy and pulsing with a techno soundtrack, HAPPYEND is a hopeful, youthful vision of resistance and joy in the face of control.
Directed by Neo Sora
"Sora’s excellent drama captures this crossroads beautifully, never leaning into melodrama but understanding that the stakes for these people are enormous." Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
