In a secluded mountain village, two brothers embark on a routine hunt, accompanied by their mother. As they navigate the dense forest, an unexpected encounter occurs when a demonic arm suddenly descends from the trees, capturing the younger sibling. With quick thinking and steady aim, the older brother fires an arrow, rescuing him from the demon's grasp. However, the severed arm they leave behind bears an unsettling resemblance to someone they know, hinting at deeper connections and hidden truths.
Drawing inspiration from an ancient Japanese legend, Oni weaves a haunting tale that blends elements of supernatural horror and psychological drama. The film's atmospheric storytelling echoes the essence of classic works like Kwaidan, while its richly animated visuals have garnered acclaim at numerous international festivals. As the brothers grapple with the implications of their encounter, the narrative unfolds, revealing the intricacies of family ties and the darkness lurking within their world.
