PLOT

A young Death Metal musician left the small town where he grew up in a Japanese island to go to Tokyo to be successful. But seven years later he has to go back to his hometown with his pregnant girlfriend and broke. His father may not be too happy about it.

After the success of Wood Job, the Asian Summer Film Festival this year will open with another Japanese comedy about human relationships and life lessons learned from what is left behind.

デスメタルのバンドマンとして成功を掴もうと、故郷の島を出て上京した。しかし７年後、一文無しで妊娠した恋人を連れて、島へ帰ってきた。

昨年の映画祭で１位に輝いた『ウッジョブ！』のような世界観で、人間ドラマが繰り広げられる日本のコメディー。絶対に見逃せない。
