The premise
14-year-old Midori is the constantly abused chore girl for a freakshow. Things begin to change for her after a dwarf magician joins the freak show, but not always for the better.
Horror Vault's take
Set against the lurid backdrop of a traveling freakshow, young Midori endures relentless cruelty and degradation at the hands of those who should protect her. When a mysterious dwarf magician arrives and takes a special interest in her, a strange and unsettling shift begins to unfold in her world. Based on a cult manga, this live-action adaptation leans into extreme imagery and a fever-dream aesthetic that refuses to look away from the darkest corners of human nature. It is a deeply uncomfortable watch that courts controversy as much as it courts art.
