I don’t know if I would have the patience or discipline to watch the entire 9 hour version of Tokyo Reverse, but the 5 minute trailer is captivating. The clip is a preview for an amazing film that aired on France 4 television on March 31st in its entirety. At first glance, it appears that everyone is walking backwards except one man. Actually, protagonist, Ludovic Zuili, is the only one walking backwards, but the video is played in reverse. Tokyo Reverse was directed by Simon Bouisson and Zuili, who studied dance to perfect his reverse gait.
