Third Window films have announced the December Blu-ray release of Adrift in Tokyo [Tentem], a 2007 comedy with surrealistic touches from director Miki Satoshi (Turtles are Surprisingly Fast Swimmers, Instant Swamp).

Leading a lazy life, Fumiya has been a university student for 8 years and owes money to loan sharks. One day, a man named Fukuhara comes to collect the loan, which Fumiya cannot pay. So Fukuhara makes a proposition: He will cancel the debt as long as Fumiya agrees to walk with him across Tokyo to the police station of Kasumigaseki, where he intends to turn himself in for a crime he deeply regrets. Not having much choice, Fumiya accepts the deal.

Thus begins their journey which will lead them to various unusual encounters, most of all with themselves. Based on the original novel by Naoki Prize winner Yoshinaga Fujita comes a fascinating, humorous and wildly clever film that we described thus in our review of the earlier DVD release: "The result may well be Miki's most accomplished film yet, an involving, touching, frequently funny and richly textured work, and one of the most inventive and unashamedly enjoyable Japanese films to hit the UK in recent years."

Adrift in Tokyo will be released on Blu-ray by Third Window Films on 12 December 2022 at the RRP of 19.99.
