Japanese cinema keeps bringing interesting and original stories to the table, with incredible consistency.

If you had fun with brat summer, get ready for Anora fall...
...because this is the most fun I had in a theater all year and probably all decade. Every single character is incredible and acted perfectly, every story beat and tone switch is masterfully done, all jokes and comedic moments land and every emotional moment hits like a train. It's fun and crazy and full of sex, drugs, alcohol and parties but still retains a level of emotional depth…
