Samâ firumu ni notte

It's a Summer Film!

Falls into that rare category of

"I don't mind watching this again".

It is a movie about a movie being made by a highschool member of a school film club whose script for a Samurai film lost out to a teen-romcom script. And yet it is a movie that ticks a lot of boxes: samurai, coming of age, underdog, Sci-Fi, High School and yes, it too is a romcom.

Watch how a time traveler aids in making this a reality in spite of the obvious setbacks and insanely furious changes to the version of the final climatic scene.

The ending is unexpectedly expected and very satisfying.

If I ever get to live my life over, Barefoot would be the kind of daughter I want.

And yes, I watched it again. It made my day, twice.
