SWALLOWTAIL BUTTERFLY (1996)
Suwarôteiru - Director Iwai Shunji's
unofficial masterpiece, Swallowtail Butterfly is an original and stunningly made
film encompassing more emotions than any film should be allowed to.
Set in a dirty Japanese slum known as a "Yentown", the film
tells the tale of a colorful collection of characters, immigrants from all over
Asia. Kicked to the curb by society, these immigrants struggle to make their own
way, with predictably poor results. That is, until a surprising and almost
miraculous event occurs that grants them the ability to literally make their own
money!
With the Yen suddenly within reach, the inhabitants of Yentown
break out of their squalor to find their individual hearts' desires, but along
with money, trouble will always follow.
