Turtles Swim Faster Than Expected

Turtles Swim Faster Than Expected [trailer]

Suzume Katagura is a bored housewife who spends her days doing chores and taking care of her husband's pet turtle. One day she sees a wanted ad for spies. Hoping for some excitement she decides to give them a call.

Again a number of absurd and funny scenes and characters (apples on staircase, the hairdresser, the ramen chef, the two detectives, ...), but also at times the feeling that a lot of the weirdness is for weirdness' sake.

Which is something I frequently think when watching a movie from Satoshi Miki. That's not necessarily a bad thing, you just have to be prepared for it.
