Welcome to the private academy Hyakkaoh, where privileged young people do their studies. The particularity of this institution is that the hierarchy is defined by success in gambling, and if a student can’t honour a bet, he’ll be treated like a household pet from then on. This system is managed by the powerful student council led with an iron hand by the calculating Kirari (Elaiza Ikeda) who goes so far as to force her fellow students to bet. However, an quasi-religious group called the Village opposes the council. Led by Amane (Hio Miyazawa), an almost Christian figure who refuses to gamble, they live on the fringes of this society, but their numbers are growing every day. A new student, Yumeko could change this dynamic. Alternating between a sparkling, brittle, or downright condescending attitude, she seems impossible to read, as if her life was a strategy. When Kirari declares “elections” based on a huge gaming tournament to destroy the Village, Yumeko sees an opportunity to overthrow the power. (Fantasia International Film Festival)
