Synopsis:

A man wakes up in an asylum with no memory. Dr Wakabayashi helps him to recall his past in which he killed his bride on their wedding day. Part of his memory becomes linked to another doctor, Dr Masaki, and a manuscript, Dogra Magra . As the two doctors treat him, reality and fantasy become blurred and the patient becomes unsure of his identity or his doctors' experiments. The final feature film by Toshio Matsumoto ( Funeral Parade of Roses ) is an adaptation of the celebrated novel by Kyusaku Yumeno, a period set gothic tale with a sense of dreamy dread that recalls Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Cure and the locked room mystery of Shutter Island . A stunningly shot phantasmagoria by Tatsuo Suzuki ( Pastoral: To Die in the Country ), Dogra Magra is presented on Blu-ray for the first time outside of Japan.
