The "new sci-fi, cyberpunk film project" is an adaptation of screen out of competition at this year's Annecy International Animation Film Festival in June.
Kana Hanazawa plays Yoshiko Hiiragi (pictured below), a member of Hirame, a secret government organization dedicated to fighting the "Human Lost" mutation phenomenon. Yoshiko holds a mysterious power to detect and contain the mutation.
Funimation describes the film:
From the chief director of “Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters.”The year is 2036. A revolution in medical treatment has conquered death by means of internal nanomachines and the “Shell System”, yet only the richest can afford to partake.
Yōzō Oba isn't the richest. Troubled by strange dreams, he flippantly s his friend's biker gang on an ill-fated incursion to “The Inside”, where society's elite lives. This instigates a journey of terrifying discovery that will change Yōzō's life forever.
TOHO Visual Entertainment is distributing the film in Japan.
Dazai's original Ningen Shikkaku novel follows a young man's deepening alienation from the rest of the world, despite his attempts to maintain a cheery facade.
