Another great find from the Japan Foundation Touring Film Programme 2017 at ICA London. This little masterpiece of intertwined stories, all connected to Tokyo's Kabukicho entertainment district, brings us a great cast of colourful characters, including some strong female characters, my favourite being Lee Eun-woo as Hena aka Ilia. The film follows the adventures of the hotel manager and his staff (one of them a fugitive), his musician girlfriend and adult video newbie sister, two cheating police officers, and various other hotel guests over a period of 24 hours. Plenty of laughs but also hints of more serious topics like Japanese-Korean relations and the demise of the Kabukicho district. A nice drama to watch with plenty of nice sights :)
