She Taught Me Serendipity (18)

Toru’s university life is plagued by tedium.

Struggling to find his place, his only joys are the antics of his classmate Yamane, his sole friend on campus, and Sacchan, his musically gifted co-worker. Everything changes when Toru meets Hana, whose appearance and fearless attitude towards solitude captivates him.

“I want to feel that every day is fun. I want to feel that today’s sky is my favourite,” says Hana. The words echo those once spoken by his late grandmother – and, hearing them, he is swept up in the fortunate serendipity of finding someone who is so like-minded. But just as Toru starts to rediscover joy in everyday life with Hana, a shocking event strikes them both, transforming their destiny forever.

Acclaimed director Akiko Ohku explores new horizons in She Taught Me Serendipity, delivering a beautifully captured, intensely authentic portrayal of contemporary youth and human connection.
