Ferocious

About This Movie

Ferocious presents a gritty, unflinching look at redemption and the weight of one's past. The film's atmosphere is thick with a sense of impending doom, mirroring Koutarou's own existential struggle. The pacing is deliberate, perhaps reflective of the protagonist's own stagnation, while the interactions with Kondo and Ryohei bring unexpected warmth amidst the darkness. The performances, especially that of the lead, are raw, capturing the inner turmoil of a man fighting against time and fate. What stands out is its practical effects, lending an authenticity to the visceral moments that punctuate the narrative, making it a unique entry in the indie landscape of 2020.

Ferocious has a limited format history, primarily released on indie platforms and digital formats, which makes its physical media editions rather scarce. Collector interest is growing, especially among those who appreciate raw storytelling and character-driven narratives. The film’s unique take on redemption and the human condition draws attention, and it might become a sought-after title for those who value deeper thematic explorations in cinema.
