Peep 'TV' Show

This DV feature dissolves the borders that supposedly separate fiction from reality. Centred on the generation of kids that hang out on the streets and small apartments around Shibuya, in Tokyo, the film captures two months of the strangely dislocated lives of these young people, who often live alone and isolated. Obsessed by the internet, by surveillance cameras, at home with internet porn, always dealing with sex but at the same time strangely sexless, but caught up in numerous forms of peeping in which they peep and in turn become somebody else's spectacle, this is a generation for which fashion statements are not just a way of life, but their very being and identity. The film radiates authenticity as it follows several diverse characters through their night and day life in the electronically wired, digital neon city of surfaces and screens.
