About Enka no onna: Midare bojô: Tsuya keshiki
Enka singer Kirasei Aki (Kimito Ayumi), who cannot sell, will release a new song "Woman's Ibaramichi" for the first time in five years. This release was made possible by the efforts of Aki's manager Itabashi, but it was released on condition that it would be sold out within a month from the female president of the agency, Ayame (Rin Ogawa). On the other hand, the idol of the same agency, Asuka Kojima (Yume Ayanami), has grown into a hot seller with the momentum to drop flying birds, coupled with the pillow business to music producer Teddy Saito. Naturally, Ayame was looking for a chance to fire Aki, who had been smoldering for seven years...
Directed by Kazuyoshi Sekine, Enka no onna: Midare bojô: Tsuya keshiki leans on a strong ensemble — Ayumi Kimito, Rin Ogawa, Takashi Naha — 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 2016.
