The Nighthawks Podcast enthusiastically recommends: Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes.
This delightful, tight, Japanese film from a Kyoto-based theatre troupe is the debut film of director Junta Yamaguchi, and we think you should see it. This movie is low budget, non-American, subtitled, and high concept which seems to have doomed this movie to be underseen and underdiscussed.
Join the Nighthawks and see if we can turn you on to watching this nifty little sci-fi comedy that (as of press time) was highly accessible on streaming.
If you are among the blessed masses who HAVE seen this movie, stick with the back half of the episode for a spoiler-filler deep dive into the plot.
