YesAsia Editorial Description
One punk song saves the world in the delightful rock opus Fish Story from director Nakamura Yoshihiro (The Glorious Team Batista). Based on Isaka Kotaro's novel, this topsy-turvy charmer spans multiple time periods, connecting people and threads in unexpected and enjoyable manners to a rousing laugh-out-loud conclusion. Featuring music by Saito Kazuyoshi, the ambitious temporal tale brings together an ensemble cast that includes Ito Atsushi (TV drama Train Man), Kora Kengo (Snakes and Earrings), Hamada Gaku (The Foreign Duck, The Native Duck and God in a Coin Locker), Omori Nao (Vibrator), Tabe Mikako (Monkey Magic), and Moriyama Mirai (One Million Yen Girl).
It's the year 2012, and a meteorite is on a world-ending crash course with earth. In the desolate streets, one record shop remains open for business. Inside, the store owner (Omori Nao) pulls out a record of Gekirin's "Fish Story", and tells his few patrons about the trailblazing pre-Sex Pistols punk band. Back in 1975, there was a failed band that made one last record. Unbeknownst to everyone, this song that no one remembers would affect the lives of many people, and indeed the fate of the world itself.

Product Information
Director: Yoshihiro Nakamura
Based on a novel by Kotaro Isaka, Fish Story weaves together several seemingly separate storylines taking place at different points in time over a 37-year span to explain how a little-known punk rock song can save the world.
In 1975, an unpopular Japanese punk band called "Gekirin" (Wrath) starts work on their 3rd album. Unfortunately the band is a little ahead of its time; punk won't be marketable until the Sex Pistols debut in the UK the following year. Due to nonexistent sales, their record company decides to drop them and they break up soon after recording their final song: "Fish Story".
In 1982 a timid college student named Masashi (Gaku Hamada) becomes fascinated by strange rumors surrounding the song. Apparently, at a certain point in the recording there is a brief interlude where you can hear a woman scream. Later, he meets a mysterious woman at a party who inexplicably predicts that he will save the world one day.
In 2009 a teenager named Asami (Mikako Tabe) falls asleep during a school field trip and gets left behind on a boat. Initially distraught, she's eventually consoled by a kindly cook. Suddenly, men with guns storm in and attempt a boat-jacking.
In 2012 a huge comet can be seen in the sky on a path to destroy Earth. The US has failed in their attempt to blow it up and with only 5 hours left before impact, all major city streets are completely abandoned. That is, except for one record store that continues business as usual. Within the store, "Fish Story" can be heard playing on an old turntable...
