"Lulling, hypnotic and...gorgeous,
it's the story of a little girl whose
poolside boredom is alleviated
by the arrival of a black-clad
woman and her yakuza
assistant. Exploring and
subverting the appeal of Asiatic
mystery, it beautifully evokes
the steaming daydreams of
summer."
Sam Adams
The Philadelphia City Paper
"New Yorker Kimi Takesue
traveled to Rotterdam with
SUMMER OF THE SERPENT,
a charming short about a
strange encounter at a
swimming pool. Keep an eye
on the talented Takesue."
V.A. Musetto, New York Post
"Witty and winsome"
Steven Rea
The Philadelphia Inquirer
"Visually luscious and
performance-intense"
Lydia Rheinfrank
The Philadelphia Weekly
"Grand Chameleon award went to
Kimi Takesue's film 'Summer of
the Serpent,' about a young girl's
summer day adventure."
