A staggering work of existential science fiction, THE FACE OF ANOTHER dissects identity with the sure hand of a surgeon. Burned and disfigured in an industrial accident, then estranged from his family and friends, Okuyama (Tatsuya Nakadai) agrees to his psychiatrist’s radical new experiment: a face transplant, created from the mold of a stranger. But as he becomes further alienated from the world around him, Okuyama begins to give in to his darker temptations. With unforgettable imagery, Hiroshi Teshigahara’s film explores both the limits and freedom of acquiring a new persona — and questions the notion of individuality itself.
