Plot summary


Here is another strange film from director Kawasaki Minoru involving large costumed animals in otherwise
normal settings. Kawasakis forte seems to be combining these large costumed protagonists with a sports
theme. Thus we get the infamous Calamari Wrestler(2004), Kabuto-O Beetle(2005 - A wrestling Beetle), and
Kani Gorukipa(2006 - a soccer playing Crab). In the midst of this bizarre sports-themed parade comes
Executive Koala(2005) where an uncharacteristically fuzzy character is placed in the uncharacteristically
dark and serious setting of a stressed-out business (koala)man in the midst of unsolved violent crimes.

Kawasakis earlier sports-themed films followed a fairly predictable progression where the protagonist faces
huge emotional and physical obstacles('cause its hard being a 7 foot walking squid,you know) but slowly and
surely rises to the top of his/its professional to win the trophy and get the girl. Yada yada yada. With
Koala Executive however, our koala protagonist starts at the top of his game and slowly spirals downward as
the blood dripping from his axe increases exponentially.

This is a strange tale and not only for the obvious reasons. The "secret" behind Tamuras murderous blackouts
involves an unexpected plot twist, but the true strangeness does not emerge until the films final act, as the
entire genre of the film seems to shift into, shall we say, psychedelic kung fu. As to why director Kawasaki
envisioned this for the ending of the film, I have no clue. Perhaps he was thinking outside the box.
Way WAY outside the box.

Except for the obvious fact that he is a 6 foot tall Koala bear in a business suit, Tamura leads a rather
successful yet ordinary life as a sale executive at his beloved pickle factory. And his future is looking rosy
as the lead architect of a new merger with a Korean partner. He even has a(human) girl in his sites as a possible
love interest. But his smooth sailing is interrupted by sudden, violent dreams in which he is hacking people to
death with an axe. The dreams themselves are disturbing enough, but when he realizes that the people he dreamt of
were in fact hacked to death at the very time of his nightmare, he does what any self-respecting koala would do...
talk to his psychiatrist.

Its clear from his waking personality that he is mild mannered and sensitive. So how could he possibly have such
dream-state fantasies of violent murder? And what if he is actually a sleep-walking maniac with an axe? All clues
soon point to the fact that Tamura may have come unglued, resulting in bloody rampages which his more civilized
side refuses to accept and thus blocks them from memory. Will Tamura discover the truth behind his blackouts before
his efforts at a Japan-Korea pickle merge are dashed? Will he get(at least the bloody stump)of his dream girl? Will
he suddenly become an expert martial arts warrior as neon and strobe lights flash intensely in the background?
WHO KNOWS!!??
