Princess Raccoon

Aroview: Wacky musical rumpus stars Zhang Ziyi as a 'raccoon dog' who falls in love with a prince banished to her enchanted forest.

A fanciful swansong for renegade B-moviemaker Suzuki (now well into his eighties), this enthusiastically showcases the director's trademark wild style amidst a rather silly - if hugely enjoyable - concoction of opera, hip-hop, Japanese Noh theatre, and visual hallucinogenics.
