About Shokudô no oneesan: Inran ni jimi-jiru
K-ko runs a casual eatery in Tokyo’s old downtown district. She has a spirited, straightforward personality; though she tends to lecture others, she possesses a charm that brings people together. One day, she happens to visit a "happening bar" (an adult-oriented social club) after being taken there by a customer from her shop. There, she spots a senior figure from her hometown—someone she has long admired—playing the piano...
Directed by Tarō Araki, Shokudô no oneesan: Inran ni jimi-jiru leans on a strong ensemble — Mayu Asada, Kyôko Kazama, Mutsuo Yoshioka — 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 screen titles of 2004.
