Laughless (2015)
籠中鳥
This is a harmonious town without a single smile to be seen, as the authority restricts the act of smiling, claiming that it could initiate violence and cause social turmoil. Inspector Merit 64 complies with the command of the great bailiff ‘Father’ to safeguard residents' health, when one day he encounters P928, a young man who refuses to stay obedient and tries to act against the power. This rendezvous puts Inspector Merit 64’s loyalty into test, whether to uphold his loyalty to the authority or to put up a smile according to his own wish remains his own choice. A lifelong debate between freedom and stability of living.
