DON'T MOVE when this DOLL turns around or you'll EXPLODE | Film Explained in Hindi

As the Gods Will is a 2014 Japanese supernatural horror film directed by Takashi Miike. It is based on the first arc of the eponymous manga series by Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Akeji Fujimura. The film was released on home media in the United States by Funimation.


PLOT:-

High school student Shun Takahata spends much of his time playing violent video games. One morning at school, he also whines that his life is completely boring. During class, the teacher's head blows and turns into a Daruma doll, and Shun, along with his friend Satake and their whole class suddenly find themselves forced to participate in a deadly game of Daruma-san ga koronda, with the students getting killed one by one every time they move. When the doll turns toward the blackboard, it exposes a button on its back that the students can attempt to press to end the game before his timer runs out. With the help of Satake, Shun manages to reach the button and presses it to end the game, then Satake dies, revealing that only the one who presses the button will live.

After finishing the game, Shun meets up with his friend Ichika Akimoto and they make their way to the school gym. There, they initiate the second game, Belling the Cat, featuring a Maneki Neko, where students dressed as mice attempt to throw a bell into a hoop attached to the collar of a giant beckoning cat, while trying not to be eaten or crushed. The game is won with the aid of Takeru Amaya, a troubled classmate who beats up other students, seems to revel in the opportunity to see so many deaths, and who kills all the other survivors besides Shun and Ichika after winning the game. The three of them are then put out of consciousness by sleeping gas released by the cat. They wake up to find themselves with other students in a room inside a giant flying cube hovering over Tokyo, facing the next test: students all over Japan and elsewhere in the world face similar tests, and the handful of survivors are being brought inside the cubes.
