57. Suicide club (2002)


Country: Japan
Directed by Sion Sono

A controversial provocative film full of symbols and cultural comments that I don't think that someone can analyze if is not Japanese. Well, suicide club is  a gore film about suicide , is truth that is showing the strong influence of pop culture or the problems of the Japanese youths nowadays that feel  more and more frustrated , dysfunctional. But I believe that mainly the film is something else : is just an ironic piece about all the stereotypes, fetishes, worries, nightmares, social definitions , about the entire modern Japanese culture that is presented bizzare and contradicted (as probably really is). Sion Sono ever said that wanted Japanese to hate him for this movie: deconstructing the way that Japanese see themselves probably he succeed on this  with many viewers
