A bounty hunter pursues a fugitive robot through Japan's largest fish market, a man has a hellish appointment with his optician, Death debates mortality with Guy Fawkes, a boy prolongs the festive season by camping out in the city's largest Christmas tree, and a traumatised soldier returns from a routine tax collection shouting 'Nuns!
