Three of world cinema s great visionaries: Michel Gondry (BE KIND REWIND, ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND), Leos Carax (THE LOVERS ON THE BRIDGE), and Bong Joon-ho (THE HOST) each direct a segment of this surreal triptych set in the ultra-modern metropolis of Tokyo, Japan.
In the tradition of such films as NEW YORK STORIES, NIGHT ON EARTH, PARIS JE T AIME and its forthcoming sequel NEW YORK JE T AIME, TOKYO! addresses the timeless question of whether we shape cities, or if cities shape us in the process revealing the rich humanity at the heart of modern urban life.
