Bubble premiered on Netflix in April of this year. The movie is also getting a theatrical release in Japan that started on May 13. WIT Studio’s Tetsuro Araki directed the movie, which is set in a post-apocalyptic Tokyo where parour has become a way to live. A talented young man meets a mysterious girl, who might not be human…

He is tasked with fulfilling a mission that requires him to create a fake family so he decides to adopt a child and find a wife. However, the child he adopted is a telepath, while the wife is an assassin.
