One of the meanings of the Russian word "kikimora" is a gloomy, unsociable, unpleasant person. Something in common with this concept is in the guise of the main character of the film “Welcome to HK” (NHK ni Youkoso!). - Sato Tatsuhiro. He is a hikikomori: this is what people with seclusion syndrome are called in Japan.
Sato hardly leaves the house and does not communicate with anyone, but one day a young girl named Misaki knocked on him, who said she knew how to help him. Just sign a good contract and everything will go well!
Director: Yusuke Yamamoto. close
