Parade

Four twenty-somethings share an apartment in Tokyo. In Parade each tells their story: their lives, their hopes and fears, their loves, their secrets. Kotomi waits by the phone for a boyfriend who never calls. Ryosuke wants someone that he can't have. Mirai spends her days drawing and her nights hanging out in gay bars. Naoki works for a film company, and everyone treats him like an elder brother. Then Satoru turns up. He's eighteen, homeless, and does night work of a very particular type. In the next-door apartment something disturbing is going on. And outside, in the streets around their apartment block, there is violence in the air. From the writer of the cult classic Villain, Parade is a tense, disturbing, thrilling tale of life in the city.

  • "In a crowded two-bedroom apartment in Tokyo, four Japanese twenty-somethings are waiting for their lives to begin. They have come from all over Japan, bringing with them dreams of success and romance, but life isn't exactly going as planned. Kotomi waits by the phone for a boyfriend who never calls, Ryosuke is sleeping with his best friend's girlfriend, and Mirai's drinking has become a serious problem. Only Naoki, an aspiring filmmaker and the glue that keeps them all together, seems to be on the right track. Meanwhile, their next door neighbors are up to something suspicious, and a mysterious attacker is terrorizing the neighborhood. When a homeless teenager suddenly appears, his arrival sets off a chain of events that will bring to light dark secrets the tenants of Apt. 401 have kept from one another'and from themselves. Parade'from Shuichi Yoshida ("Japan's Stieg Larsson" 'The Wall Street Journal), the wildly popular author of Villain'is a shocking story of life in the big city."@en
  • "Cinq jeunes gens partagent un appartement dans Tokyo. Chacun se présente à tour de rôle : un étudiant amoureux, une belle délaissée, une artiste alcoolique et misanthrope, un garçon assez voyeur, un employé de société de films violent à ses heures. Chacun évoque ses lieux, ses mets, ses séries TV, ses fréquentations. Une fiction sur le phénomène communautaire de la colocation.--[Memento]."
