Synopsis
Love Exposure
The story of a teenage boy named Yu, who falls for Yoko, a girl he runs into while operating for the sake of sin as an "up-skirt" photographer. His attempts to woo her are complicated by a spot of cross-dressing – which convinces Yoko that she is lesbian – dalliances with kung-fu and crime, and a constant struggle with the guilt that's a legacy of his Catholic upbringing.
Never Ever
An Easter weekend in a country town. On duty at the police precinct, lieutenants Francoise Ruiz and Clementine Arpinon are dealing with day-to-day matters. The ad hoc boredom arouses the tension between these two women that have very little in common. An intervention for disturbances of the peace at night gives them a chance to go beyond confrontation.
