Watch Kotoko (2012) Online

(JAPANESE WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLES)Kotoko is a young mother struggling to raise her young son Daijiro. Her grip on reality is shaky at best. Through her narration we learn she see’s double of everyone, one good, one evil. The problem is she can’t tell which one is real, and is constantly moving from apartment to apartment as she assaults neighbours she fears are out to harm her or her baby. Every moment of her life devolves in to a paranoid induced state, where she worries what tragedy awaits her son. She cuts herself in an effort to remind her that she is real. The only time her anxiety melts away and she feels whole, is when she sings. Soon Daijiro is taken from her, as authorities believe she is abusing her child, and place him in the custody of her sister. At the same time, a famous author (played by Tsukamoto) who hears Kotoko’s singing on a bus begins to stalk her, mesmerized by what he hears, no matter what the emotional or physical cost it may have on him or her.
