Manriki (stylized in all capitals), also known as Vise, is a 2019 Japanese satirical black comedy film directed by Yasuhiko Shimizu. Takumi Saitoh, who starred in the film, designed and produced the film with comedian Nagano. The film's plot revolves around a young woman who, being desperate to succeed as a fashion model, undergoes a grotesque and painful facial reduction procedure using a vise. Her face is disfigured as a result, which leads to absurd and darkly comic consequences.
Saitoh and director Shimizu based the film on a script that had been inspired by the discomfort Nagano felt at a fashion-industry event. It is the first feature film by Team MANRIKI, a filmmaking project team consisting of Saito, Nagano, Shimizu, and musician and actor Nobuaki Kaneko.
The film won the Asian Award at the 23rd Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival in 2019.
