Written by Fukuoka-born scriptwriter Shingo Irie, who is known for his work on the detective drama “Aibo”, the film is the story of a boy named Jun who is trying to make a movie with a video camera his father gave him. In the process of looking for a heroine for his movie, he falls in love with Yui, a girl whose father is from Brazil. The stars of the movie were recruited from local schools, with 10-year olds Takato Nogami and Maria Murashige winning the roles of Jun and Yui, respectively. Source: Nishinippon Shimbun 6/27
