Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s (CURE, PULSE) underrated, understated fish out of water drama.

Yoko (Atsuko Maeda) has only ever had one dream in life: to become a singer, but as of right now she’s a travel program host. While on a work trip to Uzbekistan, Yoko’s career aspirations deepen as the culture shock from her surroundings intensifies.

Maeda – a Kiyoshi Kurosawa regular – started her career as an idol in the girl group AKB48 before moving into acting, making her perfect for the role of Yoko. Lost, vulnerable, and scared, Yoko perseveres through an unfamiliar environment in search of her true voice. —Jenny Nulf (Sad Girl Cinema)
