US label Pink Eiga will be releasing Daisuke Goto's Blind Love (Waisetsu Stage Nandomo Tsukkonde, 2006) on region-free DVD in later this month.
The story involves a blind girl (Konatsu) who falls in love with a ventriloquist named Daisuke (Shota Kotaki) by listening to his act, "The Stretch and Shorty Show". When she meets him, she mistakenly thinks his tall friend is really him. Daisuke plays along, utilizing his friend as his real-life ventriloquist dummy in an unorthodox 3-way relationship.
Goto also directed "A Lonely Cow Weeps at Dawn", “Scorpion's Revenge”, and the 1995 version of “Zero Woman”.
All regions, NTSC, widescreen. Japanese audio with English subtitles. Features include:
