About Asian Beat: I Love Nippon
Commentary: The first work in the "Asian Beat" series, in which young directors from six Asian countries, including Japan, compete to create the same protagonist (Masatoshi Nagase). The main character "TOKIO" becomes involved in various incidents when he meets Banana, a Filipino girl who is a terrorist and holds top-secret information that will shake Japan. This work depicts the appearance of TOKIO and his escape from Japan.
Directed by Daisuke Tengan, Asian Beat: I Love Nippon leans on a strong ensemble — Masatoshi Nagase, Ruby Moreno, Haruko Wanibuchi — 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 1991.
