Takuji Kameoka is a 37-year old veteran actor who’s never had a big break despite high praises from directors and fellow actors. Is he really just an unlucky but talented actor, or an accidental genius thespian?

Rising director Satoko Yokohama brings us a visually stylistic existential comedy starring veteran actors Ken Yasuda and Kumiko Aso.

Screening as part of The Japan Foundation Touring Film Programme 2020 - Happiness is a State of Mind: Joy and Despair in Japanese Cinema. 

Organised by the Japan Foundation with Major Support from Japan Airlines, Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation, and Yakult, with Sponsorship in Kind from SUQQU, and in Cultural Partnership with Modern Culture.
