Lily Ozu Brothel ❤️

About Osaka

In my head, I’m seein’ it now—red lights, smoky air, some fool in a corner tryna look cool. “The secret’s in their eyes,” like the movie says, and them gals? They seein’ EVERYTHANG. I’d stroll in, hollerin’, “Y’all better not overcharge Madea!” Ha! I’d haggle ‘em down, sass ‘em up—ooh, I’d be a riot! Maybe I’d even bless ‘em with a prayer ‘fore I left—save they souls and they wallets!

A HEN IN THE WIND

Six people are living in a brothel located in an isolated island – Tokuta (Takayuki Yamada) and Ibuki (Riisa Naka) who are also siblings of the.

Then, I’m walking down to the river, the Hiromi River, and it’s just beautiful. Cherry blossoms everywhere! I’m snapping pics like a tourist. But then, bam! My phone slips. I dive for it, and I’m like, “Noooo!” I catch it, but my hand is soaked. Great. Just great.
