One Hitoshi (Moteki - Love Strikes) adapts the popular stage play of the same name into a blackly comic look at 20-somethings in Japan and their complicated relationship issues following a 'set-up' party aiming to put together some single friends.
Year of production : 2013 Director(s) : Hitoshi ONE Writer(s) : Daisuke MIURA Cast : Aya KUNITAKE, Chihiro SHIBATA, Daisuke SAWAMURA, Hiroki UEDA, Kenta NIIKURA, Naoko SATO, Yuumi GOTOU Producer(s) : Masashi YAMAMOTO (Cinema Impact)
Unfolding in the two weeks following a casual party at the home of the overbearing Koji, nine “20-something” Japanese revellers with long, deeply entwined histories navigate the secrets and lies of contemporary relationships. Touching on issues of self-respect, emotional manipulation, casual viciousness, petty interpersonal politicking, dependency, insecurity, infidelity and misogyny, One Hitoshi’s drama is as infuriating as it is soapy — with unfortunately recognisable characters with recognisable human flaws.
