It begins as any other day with commuters and passengers catching the 8:23 train. That is, until one train car suddenly warps into a wormhole and lands in a devastated future world. Without smartphones or social media, the passengers must confront extraordinary and extreme conditions. Mere strangers yesterday, they must face their worst fears and instincts for survival, deception, and love as they fight to get back home in this exploration of how people deal with unprecedented events.
8시 23분, 평소와 다름없는 아침.
어제와 같은 오늘을 맞이할 거라고 모두가 그렇게 생각했었다.
하지만, 돌연 도심으로 향하는 전차 한 칸이 미래의 황폐한 세계로 순간 이동해버린다.
스마트폰 자체가 전혀 도움이 되지 않는 세계로 갑자기 내던져진 승객들.
극한의 상태 속에서 각자가 안고 있는 과거와 삶의 이유, 그리고 서로의 본심을 알게 되고 변화해가는 서로의 관계성.
같은 전철에 우연히 함께 탄 승객들이 황폐한 토지에서 연락수단도 끊긴 상황 속에서 어떻게 살아갈 것인가….
힘든 상황 속에서 필사적으로 살아가는 사람들의 모습을 그린 예측불능의 휴먼 엔터테인먼트.
8點23分,一如既往的早晨。
任誰都會認為迎接與昨日相同的今天,是件理所當然的事。
但這節理應朝著都心前進的電車,卻穿越到了荒廢的未來世界。
乘客們突然來到這智慧手機毫無用處的世界中。
在極限的狀態下,互相了解各自的過去、想活下去的理由以及在知曉對方真實心情後,關係的轉變。
偶然搭上同一台電車的乘客們,究竟如何在這既荒廢又沒有任何聯絡方式的困境中活下去…。
這是一部描寫在面對巨大困難時,竭盡所能活下去,無法預測故事發展的人性故事。

What Happened to Our Nest Egg!?

老後の資金がありません!

115 min

The 2015 best-seller novel by Miu Kakiya has been adapted to film by director Tetsu Maeda (“A Banana? At This Time of Night?”). As of April, 2020, the book has sold over 260,000 copies.
In Japan, it is said you need 20 million yen saved up for retirement. Though everyone has their worries about the future, not many openly talk about it. This film comically depicts this problem through the eyes of a respectable-looking family that’s actually a bit dysfunctional.

The main character, Atsuko, is your average housewife who believes in frugality. She has a husband, Akira, who’s quite clueless about the family budget, a daughter who works part-time, and a son in college. Though Atsuko had been saving up for retirement, she gets in an argument with her sister-in-law and her husband one day, and she ends up having to pay 4 million yen for her father-in-law’s funeral. As if that’s not enough, her husband’s company goes bankrupt, she gets fired from her part-time job, her daughter wishes for a lavish wedding with her fiancé who’s in a heavy metal band, and her big-spending mother-in-law moves in. The family’s savings dwindle by the day.
Problems between husband and wife, parent and child, wife and mother-in-law, a child’s marriage, a child moving out, caring for a parent, and funerals… These are all problems that everyone faces. As the family is hit by one dilemma after another, they struggle and torment themselves in order to overcome adversity.
