The Box Man Blu-ray Limited Edition

Gakuryu Ishii, director of such cult classics as Electric Dragon 80000v and The Crazy Family takes on 
the 1973 novel “The Box Man” by Kōbō Abe, an adaptation 40 years in the making!
A man with a cardboard box over his head wanders the streets of Tokyo. Peering at the world through a peephole, he incessantly writes down in a notebook what he can see. The photographer Myself spots the man and is fascinated. He decides to do the same thing and become a box man himself. But his path to get there is not easy; countless challenges and dangers lie in wait. They include a fake doctor who wants to rob him of his box-man identity; a military man who seeks to use him for the perfect crime; and a mysterious woman who does everything she can to seduce him. Can Myself achieve his dream of becoming a box man?
