In the back room of a pet shop, they snack on dried shrimps and discuss fish-breeding. In a remote new home in the mountains, they look for a solution to a weasel infestation. During a dinner party in a blizzard, a mounting claustrophobia makes way for uneasy dreams.  Their conversations often take them in surprising directions, but when one of the men becomes a father, more and more is left unsaid.  With emotional acuity and a wry humour, Weasels in the Attic it is an uncanny and striking reflection on fertility, masculinity, and marriage in contemporary Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e--'Oyamada is in complete control of her talent...
