Ten Nights of Dreams (Yume juya) 2008

Legendary Japanese novelist Soseki Natsume opens this film by admitting that the book "Ten Nights of Dreams" is meant to be a mystery, one which might not be solved for a hundred years. He says this in 1906, and the maid he's addressing comments that she'd have to reincarnate to see that. A hundred years later, ten notable directors have each made a short film based on one of the book's surreal stories.
