Cloud

In Japanese master filmmaker Kiyoshi Kurosawa's new chilling thriller, the successful life of a young internet reseller unravels in mysterious and increasingly violent ways.

Kiyoshi Kurosawa has one of the most extensive filmographies in modern Japanese cinema, including ‘90s cult classics like Cure and Pulse, and multi-award-winning dramas like Tokyo Sonata from 2008. Kurosawa has added three more films to his filmography alone in 2024, including a French-language remake of his 1998 film The Serpent’s Path and the mid-length mystery horror Chime. Launched at Venice and Toronto film festivals, his latest film Cloud is a suspenseful thriller in which a young internet reseller, Ryosuke Yoshii (Masaki Suda) ignites a cyber-fuelled storm of malice. Blurring digital and physical threats, Cloud is a chilling dive into the dark side of modern connectivity.

“A cold thriller with a dark, satirical edge that shows the master filmmaker at his leanest and meanest.” – Rory O’Connor, The Film Stage
