A Beloved Wife (Kigeki Aisai Monogatari)

[Machine Translation] This couple, the best ever. The worst. The funniest. This is a comical comedy that portrays a love-hate relationship between a married couple in which "tears" and "laughter," "anger" and "despair" are intermingled. The film won the Best Screenplay Award at the 32nd Tokyo International Film Festival, the Best Actor and Best Actress Awards at the 12th TAMA Film Awards, the Best Actress Award at the 45th Hochi Film Awards, the Best Screenplay Award and Best Actress Award at the 42nd Yokohama Film Festival, and many other awards! Written and directed by Shin Adachi, who won the Best Screenplay Award at the Japan Academy Awards for "Hyakuen no Koi" and has written screenplays for hit small and medium movies such as "Uso Yaichi". This is his second film as a director, adapted from his autobiographical novel "Kigeki: Aisiwife Monogatari" (former title: "Mosquitoes on the Breast")! Starring Gaku Hamada, who is also popular in TV dramas and commercials, and Asami Mizukawa, who has been active in TV dramas, as his wife, the film depicts the definitive version of "Aiwa no Monogatari" (A Wife's Tale) by Reiwa! Chise Niitsu, a hot child actress who is also a member of the music unit "Foorin," plays the role of his daughter. The film also stars Kaho as Yumi, Chika's best friend, as well as Ken Mitsuishi, Eri Fuse, and Kayoko Okubo, all of whom have their own unique personalities. --The film is based on a script written by a man who has been married for 10 years, but still has no udatsu. Gouta, a screenwriter who is still struggling to get his feet on the ground, and his wife Chika, who has long since lost her heart, set off on a trip together with their young daughter. They are on a five-day research trip to write a scenario set in Shikoku. However, Gota had another important mission. During the trip, he must accomplish his long-cherished dream of "having sex with his sexless wife" at any cost!
