'Kefi' review: Kisin Saito's family reunion takes an alien turn
Saito's debut mixes a body-swapping drug and a shared-dream episode; critic James Marsh praises its style despite narrative chaos.
TLDR
Kisin Saito's debut feature follows three estranged sisters returning to their childhood home after their father's death. Their stories involve extraterrestrials, an experimental body-swapping drug and a separate trip into a shared dream. Critic James Marsh praises the film's visual command even as he finds that its many detours skirt incoherence. He finds the sisters' final interaction satisfying, though it does not resolve every narrative thread.
