ココでのはなし

Nippon Visions   ½ 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 Summer Olympics and Paralympics take place in Tokyo. The government uses the event as a marketing ploy while ordinary people struggle with their problems. The Coco Guesthouse becomes a meeting point for travelers who learn how helpful it can be to take it slow. Ryoma KOSASA’s award-winning feature-length debut is as relaxed as its setting.
