Shun Nakahara’s upcoming film, The Cherry Orchard: Blossoming (Sakura no Sono) will be released on November 8th in Japan and the official website (dead link removed) was updated with a trailer earlier today. Nakahara also directed the 1990 film of the same name and are both are based on a Akimi Yoshida manga, but this version is not a remake. In this version a girl named Momo (Saki Fukuda) transfers to a prestigious all-girls high school.
Momo is initially resistant to the school’s strict rules, but she eventually meets new friends through the drama club and their bond grows throughout the spring. Oscar promotion is using this film to showcase some of their young talent, especially Fukuda. In an attempt to generate some more publicity they shoehorned in a few extra roles for some of their top established talents. Ryoko Yonekura plays Momo’s violin teacher, Rei Kikukawa plays her homeroom teacher, and Aya Ueto plays the lead singer of her favorite band. Popular AKB48 member Yuko Oshima also stars as one of her friends, Midori.
Here's the trailer:
