Sinossi

Two men arrive at a place called Quindecim, unable to recall how they got there. They are greeted by a young woman who leads them to a small bar where a bartender awaits. They are informed that they must participate in a game, randomly selected by roulette, and cannot leave until it is finished; refusal comes with severe consequences. Along with the game's rules, the men are instructed to play as if their lives depend on it. The chosen game is billiards, but it is not as simple as pocketing pool balls, as the outcome could mean life or death.

Sfondo

Death Billiards is one of the four anime projects that each received 38 million yen (approximately US$480,000) from the "2012 Young Animator Training Project." The animation labor group was granted 214.5 million yen (US$2.65 million) by the Japanese government's Agency for Cultural Affairs, which was then distributed to studios focused on training young animators. The film was later expanded into the 2015 TV anime Death Parade.
