Overview

Director Yukihiko Tsutsumi wrings laughs out of an unlikely topic—domestic violence—in this dark comedy about noodle-shop waitress Yukie Morita (Miki Nakatani), who puts up with the fiery temper, gambling and cruelty of her shiftless, ex-gangster boyfriend (Hiroshi Abe). But as flashbacks reveal, there’s a reason behind Yukie’s unconditional love for her man. Yûko Natori and Mayumi Sada also star.
