An excellent group of staff and cast team up to create new history for the Japanese movie scene!
As for the director, we have Nobuhiro Nishikawa, a leading Japanese stage director from Bungakuza theatre company.The screenplay is by upand-coming thespian, Akito Inui. He has been nominated for the Akutagawa Award 5 times, and is the winner of the 40th Yasunari Kawabata Literary Prize as well as the 38th Noma Literary Prize for New Writers. The combined age of the two leading actors is a whopping 160! Playing the older brother, we have the legendary Shin'ichi Yanagisawa making a miraculous leading appearance at the age of 85. The younger brother is played by Choei Takahashi, aged 75, whose unique presence is a pillar of Japanese theater.
