A new trailer for Shogo Kusano’s Empty has been uploaded to the film’s official YouTube channel.
Back in March, a 3+ minute “teaser” was released, but it was sort of repetitive and plodding. The new trailer is a bit more succinct.
The film stars Naoya Shimizu as a high school boy named Koban Kato with no family, friends, money or social presence. He does, however, possess a strange ability. Whenever he’s not being noticed by the people around him, he literally vanishes—leaving only his clothing behind.
One day, Koban is kicked out of his house and meets a girl named Sheena (Airi Taira), who also has no place to live. Sheena is fascinated by Koban’s special ability and has a suggestion of how they can make use of it together.
Soon, their antics cause the locals in their sleepy town to become convinced they’ve spotted...

A trailer for Shugo Kusano’s Empty has been uploaded to YouTube on the movie’s official channel.
Naoya Shimizu stars as Koban Kato, a high school student with no friends, family, or social presence. However, he does have the ability to “teleport” by suddenly vanishing whenever he’s not being noticed by people around him. In addition to this skill being inherently insulting to Koban, it’s also relatively useless because it strips him of all his clothes.
One day, Koban uses his ability after being kicked out of his house and meets a woman named Sheena (Airi Taira) who also has no place to live. Sheena is quite impressed with Koban’s teleporting, and quickly devises a plan to put it to good use. Soon, their antics cause the town to start believing there’s a kappa on the loose.
“Empty” will be screened at the Okinawa International...
