RELEASE DATE: May 7, 2019
On May 7th, 2019, U.S. independent label, Film Movement, will be releasing the Blu-ray for All About Lily Chou-Chou (read our review), a 2001 festival favorite from director Shunji Iwai (Vampire).
For kids around the world, music is often the only salvation when the pain and anxiety of teenage life becomes too much to bear. Yuichi (Hayato Ichihara, Blade of the Immortal) is in the 8th grade and he worships Lily Chou-Chou, a Bjork-like chanteuse whose epic music is lush and transcendent. Yuichi only lives for Lily Chou-Chou’s big Tokyo concert, where the lies and violence can be washed away by the presence of his goddess and her powerful music. But fate has yet another obstacle in store for Lily’s devoted fan.
All About Lily Chou-Chou also stars Shugo Oshinari (Battle Royale II), Ayumi Ito (Gantz), Takao Ohsawa (Goemon) and Yu Aoi (Tokyo Ghoul).
Special Features:
