Tokyo! Filmmakers Michel Gondry, Leos Carax, and Bong Joon Ho interpret modern-day Tokyo in this arty and imaginative 2008 film, which is reminiscent of Night on Earth, New York Stories, and Paris, Je T'aime, that is divided into their respective vignettes: In Interior Design (4), an unemployed Japanese woman (Ayako Fujitani) becomes frustrated as she searches with her gift-wrapping, avant garde filmmaker boyfriend (Ryo Kase) for a new home while staying at the cramped apartment of a friend (Ayumi Ito) and eventually finds her self-worth and usefulness through unusual means; in Merde (2), a bizarre chrysanthemum-eating, sewer-dwelling foreigner (Denis Lavant) terrorizes citizens in Tokyo and is defended by a French lawyer (Jean-François Balmer) afflicted with similar physical attributes after his client goes on a murderous rampage with grenades; and in Shaking Tokyo (3), a pizza-loving agoraphobic (Teruyuki Kagawa) musters the courage to venture outside after 10 years when he meets a tattooed delivery girl (Yû Aoi) during a Tokyo earthquake.
