Happy weekend, everyone!

After the Storm Koreeda Kirin Abe

I hope you are all well.

I feel I’ve been searching for something deeper than the ocean and I may have found it now I have to summon the courage to seize it.

I wrote a preview of the Tokyo International Film Festival and also posted a review for Yota Kawase’s rural comedy Being Natural.

What is released this weekend?

Synopsis: Facebook is an evil corporation that wrecks everything from democracy to marriage. Just take Goro Kaiba (Suzuki Matsuo) as an example. He learns that his wife Ayako (Miho Nakayama) is having an affair with a hot guy and she posted about it on Facebook and that post has received 108 likes! Facebook brings out the worst in people (usually venality and racism). For Goro Kaiba, it brings out a bizarre revenge plot:

A divorce would cost him 10,000,000 million yen, so instead of that he decides to use that money on a epic one month womanising streak where he plans to bed 108 women.
