In this evocative triptych — three taut stories set in Tokyo about the mysteries and depths of women’s desires — coincidence seems as natural as the passing of time, and both are depicted in equal measure as whimsical and sharp: A fashion model discovers her friend is dating the ex who may have been her true love; a college student attempts to avenge humiliation by enlisting his lover to lure his sadistic professor into a “Me Too” situation; two middle-aged women make a poignant, enigmatic connection.

Director Ryûsuke Hamaguchi might be the hottest filmmaker on the planet. His new film, Drive My Car, which we are showing in late January, has been named Film of the Year by both the New York and Los Angeles critics associations, won Best Screenplay at Cannes, and is on the shortlist for Oscar nominations in multiple categories.
