Zazie

About This Movie

Zazie is this intriguing piece that really captures the restlessness of a former rock star trying to navigate life after fame. Filmed in the fading, almost melancholic backdrop of Shibaura, it’s an atmospheric exploration of identity and the weight of past choices. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing you to soak in the nuances of Zazie's everyday existence. There's this tension between nostalgia and the desire to break free from it, beautifully reflected in his attempts to document his life on video. The performances are raw and heartfelt, particularly the dynamic with his ex-girlfriend Megumi and the bandmates who just won’t let go—adds layers to the emotional landscape. It's a unique snapshot of a life that feels both specific and universal.
