The Weirdness that is 'Severance'
Severance is about breaking down facades and confronting old models that were once frameworks of our lives. The somewhat subtle message to me is it’s never too late to fall in love, no matter your insecurities.
Tracing to Expo '70
Raised in Japan, Yukiko’s education was made possible by a Taiwanese benefactor. As Expo ’70 nears, she becomes a hostess, determined to find her long-lost benefactor. Her search takes her across Osaka, Kobe, Nara, and Hokkaido, but every lead vanishes as quickly as it appears. Set against the 1970 Osaka Expo, this film stars Taiwanese-Japanese singer Judy ONGG, seamlessly blending music, dance, and documentary elements.
