Back in January, a very brief news item was posted on the Iwai Shunji Film Festival website announcing the fact that Iwai would be producing a film by writer/director Eriko Kitagawa called Atarashii Kutsu wo Kawanakucha and it would be filmed entirely in Paris. Earlier today, further details came out of Paris, where filming is currently underway.
The movie stars Miho Nakayama—a Paris native since 2003—and Osamu Mukai. Nakayama plays a freelance writer named Aoi who breaks the heel of her shoe and has a chance encounter with a young photographer named Sen (Mukai), who was brought to Paris by his younger sister. The meeting sparks an immediate attraction between them even with their 12-year age gap, and their subsequent romance is depicted over a span of three days.
Iwai and Kitagawa previously partnered on the high school romance-themed film Halfway in 2009. Kitagawa was primarily a TV drama screenwriter up to that point.
