• Wrapped in the guise of time travel, the film explores the issue of gender roles in modern society. However, this problem is unsolvable; after all, without economic power, there's no voice. So, in the end, Jinno Ryo can only return to the Edo period, where things were simpler. • The English title of this film is "A Story of a Boy and a Samurai," which highlights the ambiguity of the Japanese people. What was originally a story between a man and a woman has been transformed into a child's coming-of-age tale. • Rie Tomosaka is good, but she appears a bit older, which detracts from her performance. • Download: https://mypikpak.com/s/VNqR7SQUnEcqEC6b3qQZxwWto1
