Presents
Lost in Translation
Plot:
Middle-aged American movie star Bob Harris is in Tokyo to film a personal
endorsement Suntory whiskey ad solely for the Japanese market. He is past his
movie star prime, but his name and image still have enough cachet for him to
have gotten this lucrative $2 million job. He has an unsatisfying home life
where his wife Lydia follows him wherever he goes - in the form of messages and
faxes - for him to deal with the minutiae of their everyday lives, while she
stays at home to look after their kids. Staying at the same upscale hotel is
fellow American, twenty-something recent Yale Philosophy graduate Charlotte, her
husband John, an entertainment still photographer, who is on assignment in
Japan. As such, she is largely left to her own devices in the city, especially
when his job takes him out of Tokyo. Both Bob and Charlotte are feeling lost by
their current situations, which are not helped by the cultural barriers they
feel in Tokyo, those cultural barriers extending far beyond just not knowing the
language. After a few chance encounters in the hotel, they end up spending much
of their time hanging out together, each helping the other deal with their
feelings of loss in their current lives. The friendship that develops between
the two, which is not always a bumpy-free one, may be just for this specific
place and time, but it may also have long lasting implications.
