This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
One Million Yen Girl (Japanese: 百万円と苦虫女, Hepburn: Hyakuman-en to nigamushi onna) is a 2008 Japanese drama film written and directed by Yuki Tanada. The film is a variation on seishun-eiga and family drama that tells the story from a woman's perspective. The troubled 21-year-old female protagonist named Suzuko Sato (Yū Aoi) sets out on a journey to escape troubles and lives on her own terms by saving up one million Yen each time, but ultimately finds that grass is always greener on the other side.
In Japanese films, it is unusual for the girls to take initiative, however, One Million Yen Girl was able to subversively redefine this narrative. This is one of the most popular films by Yuki Tanada that incorporates feminism and aims toward redefining the gender role and space for woman in the film industry. With a middle ground budget and some promotions, this film has comfortably found success and won awards.
