What happens
Pyrokinesis, also known as Crossfire (Japanese: クロスファイア, Hepburn: Kurosufaia), is a 2000 Japanese science fiction thriller film co-written and directed by Shusuke Kaneko. The film is about a woman with pyrokinetic powers seeking to avenge the murder of her friend's sister. It was based on two novels by Miyuki Miyabe: Crossfire and Hatobuki Grass. Released by Toho in Japan on June 10, 2000, Pyrokinesis did only moderate at the box office, but obtained positive reviews and impressed Toho executives, leading to Kaneko making Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack (2001).
