A rich old man fearing the fate of his only grandaughter (Aoi Miyazaki) consults a group of men who have found one way to counteract the virus through music.

While visually stunning with its imagery of a future overgrown with nature, the true focus of this film is on music and its power to save humannity. Be sure to check out the soundtrack to the film as well. "Eli, Eli, Lema Sabachthani?" is available in both a standard and limited edition which both include English subtitles. Film available now!
