Perfect Blue - The Movie - Blu-ray

From pop star to celebrated actress - this is how young Mima envisions her career after leaving the girl group CHAM! However, the aspiring actress must first prove her skills on set. Mima is required to perform a rape scene with only a few lines of dialogue, and to affirm her image transformation, she has a nude photoshoot with a famous photographer. Not all of her fans are thrilled about this, and she even receives threatening letters. Online, the young woman discovers her diary, which recounts her daily life and reveals details that only she could know. Pushed into a role that feels foreign to her, stalked, and after the brutal murder of her screenwriter, Mima increasingly loses her grip on reality. She often sees illusions of another Mima - and the murders in her vicinity continue. What is truly real? Satoshi Kon's work blends cyberspace, fiction, and reality, dreams and illusions like an artful trompe l'œil painting - a psychological thriller that remains opaque until the very end.
