The woman in the checked shirt is actress Fumino Kimura (34), but this is not an actual event, but a scene during the shooting of a movie.
The shooting took place in mid-October in a park in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture. It was a large scale location shooting with nearly 100 extras. The arbitration scene at the beginning of the film was shot many times, but the OK was hard to come by. Each time, Kimura would return to the starting point, sit on his bicycle and wait, looking a little tired.
“This is a new film by Koji Fukada, an up-and-coming Japanese director who is attracting international attention. Kimura has appeared in a variety of films in different genres, and it looks like her new charm will blossom in this film.
During the intermission, Kimura was happily choosing a lunch box in front of the prepared lunch boxes as if to say, “Which one should I choose? I’m looking forward to watching her give her best performance on screen.
