Description
“Snappy wife” and a “Regrettable husband”!
The struggles story of the Asayama family has now begun.
Written and directed by the renowned screenwriter Shin Adachi, this work is based on his serialized diary. It is a family drama depicting the challenges a household faces, portrayed through biting criticism, sharp scoldings, and rare moments of affection.
Kenta neglects to look after his children and gets caught up in googling himself, all for the sake of his ego, while his wife, Asako manages the household and her job, working hard to support Kenta's long-held dream of becoming a film director. The story of a peculiar yet endearing family begins, showcasing a self-centered husband and a wife who, despite frequently losing her temper with him, prioritizes the needs of others over her own. Their contrasting personalities, along with their lovable, unique, and cheeky kids, create a whirlwind of misunderstandings and laughter, making us think about what the real family styles are!
Shin Adachi received the Japan Academy Prize for Best Screenplay for “100 YEN
LOVE” and the Best Screenplay Award at the Tokyo International Film Festival
for “A Beloved Wife.” The film “100 YEN LOVE” was remade by Jia Ling and
released in China as “热辣滚烫 (English title: “YOLO”) " in 2024.
Gaining significant recognition as a director and screenwriter, he humorously portrays the bittersweet aspects of his everyday life.
