Shunsuke Kawasaki

A small provincial town surrounded by mountains and fields in northeastern Japan. Here a group of eight policemen solve a series of unusual cases, ranging from extortion, to drunken fathers, to corruption and even the persecution of a man who claims to be an alien. This entertaining film shows these cops with a human heart with humor.

A youth drama about a sincere and pretty young maiko who comes to Tokyo for the first time in her life and fills her little heart with the joys and sorrows she experiences there.

One of Sayuri Yoshinaga's first leading roles.
