The Happiness of the Katakuris

Overview

The Katakuri family eagerly launches their mountain guest house, but their grand opening quickly spirals into chaos. After their first guest unexpectedly takes his own life, the family buries him discreetly in the backyard to evade scrutiny. As if this weren't enough, their second visitor—a well-known sumo wrestler—dies in a scandalous incident with his underage girlfriend, prompting the backyard to become a makeshift graveyard. With each unfortunate event, the family's attempts to maintain normalcy become increasingly absurd and desperate in this darkly comedic tale.
