Tremble All You Want
Actress Mayu Matsuoka in attendance
Based on Risa Wataya’s best-selling novel and winner of the Tokyo international Film Festival’s Audience Choice Award, Akiko Ohku’s film is a tender and very funny study of romantic obsession and social isolation.
Yoshika is a social awkward 24-year-old obsessed with fossils and a boy from her middle school days. When an earnest co-worker confesses his feelings for her she struggles to set her obsessions aside.
Mayu Matusoka’s hilarious and heartfelt central performance, a witty script and breakneck pacing make it one of 2017’s best films.
