Third Window Films will release Eiji Uchida’s dark comedy ‘Love and Other Cults’ (獣道) on dual format DVD & Blu-ray on March 26, 2018.

Based on a true story, the film revolves around a young girl who spends several years with a cult and then struggles to find her place in society. The cast includes Sairi Itoh, Kenta Suga, Antony, Kaito Yoshimura, and Hanae Kan.

Synopsis: Born in a small town in Japan, a young girl named Ai is sent to a cult commune by her religious maniac mother and lives there for seven long years. After the cult is exposed by the police, Ai starts a new stage of life, going to a normal school for the first time, but she can’t find her place to fit in there. Ai drops out from the school and society, spending her life living with a rock-bottom delinquent family full of gangsters and call girls. In a strange twist of fate she finds herself back in a new and normal life, living with a middle-class family, but her troubled life continues to follow her into more deep and seedy paths.

‘Love and Other Cults’ is available for pre-order now from Amazon.co.uk. The film will also screen at the Deptford Cinema in London on February 13th, and at the Quad Cinema in Derby on March 16th.
