Trivia (Director Cameo) Kiyoshi Kurosawa: (at around 16 min. into the film) While Kawashima is looking at the various people moping around in a catatonic state via web cam, there is one man who appears to be sleeping on his desk. He then wakes up, raises his head, and looks straight into the camera, facing us. That man is Kurosawa Kiyoshi, writer and director of this film. See more »
