Motoki Fukami

Manga artist Shinji Izumoto (Tomohisa Yamashita) has secured a movie deal. He should be celebrating, but he’s going blind, his manga series has been canceled, and he can no longer care for his grandmother (Mari Natsuki). All alone, Shinji makes the devastating decision to jump off a balcony. When Hibiki Aida (Yuko Araki), a deaf fan of his, saves Shinji, they begin an unusual life together.

For shy and awkward Ryoichi, dreams of musical superstardom have long since faded and he’s resigned himself to a lifetime of unrewarding office work for a company that barely acknowledges his existence. But when he randomly buys a pet turtle named Pikadon, a series of events are put into place that not only give Ryoichi the chance to fulfil his rock and roll fantasies, they might just bring about the end of the world. With more imagination in the first ten minutes than most films can boast in their entire running time, Love and Peace is pure Sono: a bonkers and uproarious one-of-a-kind that simply has to be seen to be believed.
