IMDB

Yoshihiro Nakamura has worked with scriptwriter Tamio Hayashi on See You Tomorrow, Everyone (2013) and adapting Kotaro Isaka’s novel The Foreign Duck, the Native Duck and God in a Coin Locker (2007) already and this one’s script seems to have good form with its decades-spanning story being told smoothly.

This presents a good chance to get to see some early roles of big actors like Kengo Kora (The Story of Yonosuke) and Gaku Hamada and Mirai Moriyama (The Drudgery Train).

Synopsis: Fish Story consists of different storylines taking place at different points over a 37-year span to explain how a little-known punk rock song can save the world.

In 1975, an unpopular Japanese punk band called Gekirin (Wrath) break up soon after recording their final song: Fish Story. In 1982 a timid college student named Masashi (Gaku Hamada) becomes fascinated by strange rumors surrounding the song. In 2009 a teenager named Asami (Mikako Tabe) falls asleep during a school field trip and gets left behind on a boat which is taken over by terrorists. In 2012 a huge comet can be seen in the sky on a path to destroy Earth. How does a little punk song connect all these events?
