Synopsis
Takashi Miike isn’t the only one who knows about high school terrors. We’re in Jakarta, where a group of foreign students says goodbye to their philosophy teacher, who submits them to a final, perverse test. In the middle of the nuclear Apocalypse, only ten of the twenty students can access the bunker: what will they do to save their skin? A complex, fantasy-filled story.
