My friend Noah saw this Japanese film offered as an option for viewing on an international flight. The plot summary: “In a dystopian near future, a special police force protects libraries … A mission to safeguard a special book is actually a devious trap.” According to Noah, who saw bits of it over the shoulder of a fellow passenger, the film “looked to be one non-stop gun battle.” It’s based on a book series by Hiro Arikawa, Toshokan Sens\u014d<\/i> (\u56f3\u66f8\u9928\u6226\u4e89<\/span>)<\/a>, which has also been adapted for manga, television, and radio.
