Synopsis
The classic suspense-horror tale “Frankenstein” is reimagined as a modern love story set in present-day Japan. What if the famous “monster” lived in contemporary Japanese society? This unique adaptation explores humanity through the impossible romance between a monster who falls in love with a human and a beautiful young woman, as they navigate their feelings while striving to live meaningful lives.
Starring Ayano Go and Nikaido Fumi, this extraordinary production presents a love story with a 100-year age gap. Ayano portrays the “monster” – created by humans 120 years ago and living in solitude ever since. His life changes when he encounters Tsugaru (Nikaido Fumi), a university student, and falls in love. This isolated being discovers the world through their connection, experiencing love and friendship for the first time. But what fate awaits this unusual pair?
