Eight love stories start and end in an amusement park. In the neon-lit amusement park, budding romances unfold, along with scenes of breakups. As the Ferris wheel slowly rotates, couples with varying moods sit inside: some on secret rendezvous, some hastily formed couples, and others; lovers with ulterior motives. This film depicts the love stories of eight couples in the amusement park.
Directed by Kazuki Ōmori, Broken Heart leans on a strong ensemble — Miho Kanno, Gamon Kaai, Tomoko Yamaguchi — 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 romance titles of 1995.
