Business Overview
A gorgeous double feature triumphant domestic tour. "Kyojo X" (Young Woman X): Released in 2013. A masterpiece that has been performed in Tokyo, Yokohama, Kuala Lumpur and Bangkok. Won the Best Film and Best Screenplay awards at Bangkok Theatre Festival 2014. Set in Tokyo in 2013, the year of a series of rapes and murders of young girls, the film depicts the tense atmosphere and celebration of modern times through an older sister and her little daughter living in a high-rise apartment with her rich husband, a poor younger brother, and a man who is her ex-boyfriend and walks in search of "enemies." "Fun Time" = The premiere is an installation style solo performance by writer and director Yamamoto about what fun time is for people living in the future as a sequel to "Young Woman X". This time, after two years, it has been reborn as a completely new work. The setting is an unusual scene at a wedding. The words spoken by one actor are convoluted, and his body moves silently. This is a new work that marks the conclusion of the activities of the field swimming and takes a new step forward.
