Inspired by one of the greatest mysteries in Japanese history

Past and present collide in this fantasy film when Mayuko (Haruka Ayase), a young woman who lacks direction in life, checks into the mysterious Kyoto hotel. The unlikely combination of a music box, a local sweet and the hotel elevator transports her into the Sengoku period (1407-1603) where she meets the infamous warlord Oda Nobunaga and his young page.

Inspired by one of the greatest mysteries in Japanese history – The Honnouji Incident – this spectacular and entertaining epic will screen its Australian premiere at JFF Fringe. In cinemas for one night only.
