dele

2018 · 1 season

A quiet, thoughtful procedural that turns digital cleanup into moral excavation, asking you to sit with grief and secrets without easy comfort.

Overview: Freelance programmer Sakagami is paralyzed in the lower half of his body and confined to a wheelchair. He sets up a company called dele.LIFE in partnership with a law firm established by his late father. At the request of clients, Sakagami works together with a freelance jack-of-all-trades Mashiba to delete all unfavorable digital records of their clients left in their computers and smartphones after they die. They are not supposed to see inside the files but when they feel something strange in the client’s death, they cannot help getting involved.
How it feels: Melancholic, tense, earnest and dark. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Death, memory, identity, isolation
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
