Director: Shuichi Okita

Language: Japanese (subtitled in English)

An unconventional drama about a bumpkin (Kengo Kora) in Tokyo during the 1980s, who though persistence and sweet obliviousness befriends a spoiled rich girl (Yuriko Yoshitaka) who elevates him from pet to boyfriend. The film is memorable for the fresh ways it answers that age-old question: What will remain of us when we're gone? The new Third Window Films U.K. DVD and Blu-ray releases offer English subtitles.
