Overview
- Orelsan stars in director David Tomaszewski’s Yoroï, released on 29 October with a runtime of about 1 hour 50 minutes.
- The story follows Aurélien Cotentin relocating to Japan, where a binding ancestral armor unleashes yokai that mirror his burnout and public pressures.
- Early reviews describe an entertaining, self-focused genre piece that embraces fan service and familiar tropes without aiming for high art.
- The project extends a 15-year artist–director partnership, with Orelsan reportedly training for combat scenes over eight years.
- Only four songs appear in the film, and they will feature on La Fuite en avant, Orelsan’s fifth album set for 7 November.
