Tokyo! 2008

Tokyo! assigns Michel Gondry, Leos Carax and Bong Joon-ho to create their own visions of the megalopolis. Bong Joon-ho’s segment Shaking Tokyo explores what it means to hide away from the trauma and joy that come with city life. Teruyuki Kagawa plays a shut-in who hasn't left his apartment in 10 years. What happens when boy hikikomori meets girl hikikomori? Our shut-in finds out after he meets a strange, shy pizza-delivery woman. It is a quiet, light-as-air little love story, punctuated by earthquakes.
