Directed by Tetsuya Takehora
Reviews
Overview
Shizuku and Tamami are geisha in Atami who are rivals at the same okiya (tea house). Shizuku is a miser who will use any tool necessary to get what she wants, including sex. On the other hand, Tamami believes in doing things the traditional way, with class. With opposing personalities, these two are always at each other’s throats. Tamami continues to blame herself for her mother’s suicide while Shizuku never knew parental love and doesn’t have good luck with men. Learning each other’s past, the two seem to have built a strong bond… that is until Kenzo, the event producer of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics comes to Atami. Kenzo will be making a movie about traditional Japanese culture for PR and would like to have either Shizuku or Tamami in it. Tamami sees this as an opportunity to fulfill her dead mother’s dreams, while Shizuku sees this as a path to getting rich. The two compete for who will get the contract for this dream opportunity.
