“This film opened the Japanese Eyes section of the 22nd Tokyo International Film Festival, was formally entered in foreign film festivals such as the 12th Barcelona Asian Film Festival in Spain, and has set late show attendance records for live-action films at theaters in Tokyo, where it was released. A rare disease called "emanon" which causes people to lose their most precious memories is spreading in Tokyo. Mio (Romi) is called out to by a man she doesn't recognize, Teru (Kusano Kota). She thinks he's trying to pick her up, but he says he used to be her boy friend.”

No dvd announced yet. It was still playing in cinema’s this spring.
Here’s a double feature trailer for some piece of trash (1st) and Fukushima’s semi-interesting earlier film 自由 (jiyuu). Running time: 37 min.

Great cover art! Looking at some of the directors other films I’m not fully convinced about his skills yet, though.

This was released in the Dogma 96 series of Hyper Minimal Movies, with Kyuya Nakagawa’s Coming Future. The trailer has a couple of terrible bits (the kiss, and a few others) but also some interesting shots. Could be good, could be bad, could be both.
