Released in 2003, Japanese Story is a drame and romance film directed by Sue Brooks, running about 110 minutes. “Il y a des voyages... Qui vous changent à jamais” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. Associée à un de ses amis dans une société de logiciels spécialisée en cartes géologiques, Sandy, passionnée par son travail et évidemment débordée, se retrouve dans l'obligation de gérer le séjour d'un homme d'affaires japonais, client potentiel. Leur première rencontre est un véritable fiasco. Pour Sandy, Hiromitsu est froid, antipathique, sexiste et un peu volubile. Lui la considère comme une femme très impolie, arrogante, peu attrayante, tout juste bonne à lui servir de guide, car il veut absolument visiter le désert du Pilbara. Cette expérience, extraordinaire sous bien des aspects, va les amener à reconsidérer leurs a priori.

Who’s in it. Japanese Story stars Toni Collette as Sandy Edwards, Gotaro Tsunashima as Hiromitsu Tachibana, Matthew Dyktynski as Bill Baird and Lynette Curran as Mum, among others.
