サンセット・サンライズ
A grounded drama with an ensemble cast.
In 2020, the world is forced into lockdown by the COVID pandemic. As remote work is popularized in order to keep the infection rate under control, a young man employed by a company in Tokyo moves to a country town on the Sanriku Coast in Miyagi Prefecture, where he could enjoy fishing, in search of a new lifestyle. But gradually, we found that there were problems such as "empty houses" in the local area.

- คนโตเกียว 👈🏻- คนโตเกียวแล้วมันทำไม
Started to feel its run time by the end but I loved this! Started off annoyed because I feel like I was watching with the Coolidge Crowd (laughing at any and everything) but thirty minutes in I was howling with them!Some FANTASTIC bits in here with some great renditions on classic bits as well. It's a lovely and very modern take on the city guy/country girl with some ruminations on getting over grief. I love that alot of japanese films aren't scared of tackling contemporary settings/topics!!Very cute, slightly underdeveloped romance, but man did this shit have charm!
During the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, a Tokyo corporate employee moves to a coastal village in Miyagi Prefecture to embrace remote work, fishing, and local community life.
The film was directed by Yoshiyuki Kishi, releasing in 2025 as a poignant dramedy addressing contemporary social issues in Japan.
