Synopsis/ Plot
Yuya Ishii is the wunderkind of Japanese indie cinema, but in Sawako he abandons fancy art house conceits and makes a real movie about real people. Real losers, in fact. Sawako has been in Tokyo for five years, is on her fifth temp job and her fifth boyfriend. When her dad gets ill, she returns to her hometown and takes over his freshwater clam packing business--everyone's dream job. An insanely deadpan ode to people like Sawako, who are pulled in unexpected directions and make the most of it. For her, as for most of us, we're never going to be great. So why not stand up and proudly embrace doing your best?

NOTES
Thanks to Rawdeal@ADC for the DVD, chochoc and furransu for the subtitles. Re-encoded by me! I cleaned up a bit of the dialogues in the subtitles. This rip is tagged only so that others shall not retag it and take credit for this XviD rip and upload it elsewhere.
UK Third Window Films will distribute the DVD with English Subtitles later in the Summer of 2011 after it's Theatrical run there.
Like the Movie? Buy the DVD.
PLEASE KINDLY SEED AT LEAST 1:1 RATIO. DON'T LET THIS TORRENT DIE.
