Film description

From a young age, Shigusa has tried to fit into conventional beauty standards and seek validation from men. As she moves through various phases of life – experiencing love, heartbreak, and moments of reflection – she begins a journey of self-discovery within the art world. Engaging with creative practices, she starts to question societal expectations and explores ways to redefine her identity, breaking free from the traditional gender roles that have shaped her experiences.

Okada Shiika's debut feature, "Kisspeptin Chronicles", marks a significant transition from animation to live-action filmmaking. This innovative blend of live-action, performance, and animation showcases Okada's ability to explore complex themes of femininity and societal expectations in a uniquely expressive way. Through a lens of gentle humor, she offers a fresh perspective on the challenges faced by women in Japan's patriarchal society, delving into the complexities of female identity and the struggle to define oneself against such constraints.
