Yuka Higuchi is the only daughter of Higuchi, a long-established inn in Kaga Onsen. Fascinated by the tap dancing she saw in elementary school, Yuka moved to Tokyo with the aim of becoming a tap dancer, but her dreams were dashed and she returned to her parents' home to begin training as a landlady. Due to her clumsiness, Yuka has a hard time training as a landlady, but she struggles every day with her brightness and guts. Meanwhile, a project is launched to liven up Kaga Onsen. Yuka gathers the new landladies and holds an event featuring her favorite tap dance.
Directed by Toshirô Saiga, Lady Kaga leans on a strong ensemble — Fuka Koshiba, Ruka Matsuda, Marina Mizushima — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2024.
