Trailer - Tokyo Island (Tokyo-jima)

The official website for Makoto Shinozaki’s Tokyo Island got an overhaul at some point yesterday, apparently including a 4-minute trailer which is now greyed out on the navigation bar. Luckily, the Polish website CinemaAsia somehow managed to download it early.

Based on an award-winning novel by Natsuo Kirino, the film stars Tae Kimura as Kiyoko, an ordinary 43-year-old housewife who gets stranded on an otherwise uninhabited island with 23 other people—all of whom are young men. Island life is peaceful at first, and Kiyoko receives special treatment from the men around her. However, as more time passes, frustrations begin to mount and she decides to begin planning her escape.

“Tokyo Island” will be released by Gaga Communications in Japan this summer.
