Adrenalin Drive

Directed by Yaguchi Shinobu

After an unfortunate accident with a gangster in a black Jaguar, Suzuki, an indecisive rental car clerk, is forced to visit the yakuza’s lair. There, an unexpected explosion brings timid nurse Shizuko into his life. Suddenly, this unlikely couple find themselves in possession of a boot-full of bloody cash and on the run from an angry mobster. Romance ensues amongst the chaos. One of the funniest black comedies to emerge from Japan in recent years.
