About Tokyo Idols
This exploration of Japan's fascination with girl bands and their music follows an aspiring pop singer and her fans, delving into the cultural obsession with young female sexuality and the growing disconnect between men and women in hypermodern societies.
Directed by Kyoko Miyake, Tokyo Idols leans on a strong ensemble — Rio Hiiragi, Yuzuha Oda, Masayoshi Sakai — 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 music titles of 2017.
