An innovative
fantasy action comedy film from Hiroyuki Nakano, the director of SAMURAI
FICTION and RED SHADOW.
Keisuke is an aspiring samurai-movie actor who lands a major role in a
new film. However, as he soon learns, all is not rosy. He must contend
with a director who continually fawns over the obnoxiously hammy leading
star while giving poor Keisuke nothing but trouble. Meanwhile, the young
actor is on shaky ground with his girlfriend too, as she becomes infatuated
with an Italian professor who claims to talk to trees.
