2016 PS Film Festival
A bedraggled, unkempt slacker (Sakura Andȏ) takes control of her slapdash life by training as a boxer in Masaharu Take’s terrific drama. Ladled with generous dollops of humor and anchored by Andȏ’s transformative performance, this is hugely engaging, “A ferociously well-acted winner.” Variety
