Aki is an unsuccessful 29-year-old actress who eventually became a magician's assistant. While pretending to be hypnotised on the stage, Aki finds the boundary between reality and illusion becoming increasingly vague. For Aki, the only beautiful memory she has was the time spent with her lover Kaito.
The Limit of Sleeping Beauty masterfully blends reality, memory, and hallucination to portray Aki’s descent into schizophrenia and identity confusion, demanding full focus from viewers. Yuki Sakurai delivers a mesmerizing performance, embodying the emotional chaos and vulnerability of her character with striking authenticity. With its surreal visuals, artistic direction, and emotionally charged scenes, the film transcends psychological drama into an evocative cinematic experience.
