Daisuke MIURA
The City Of Betrayal
裏切りの街
Nippon Cinema ª
Yuichi seems to simply exist in a life dominated by his successful girlfriend. Out of sheer boredom, he decides to explore online dating, where he meets an older housewife named Tomoko (portrayed by this year’s NIPPON HONOR AWARD recipient Shinobu TERAJIMA) also looking to escape from her daily routine. Neither are exactly unhappy with their actual partners, but their affair still brings a bit of color back to their previously monochromatic lives. Daisuke MIURA uses this sensitive love-drama to show how there can often be more than one truth in a relationship.
