Synopsis
Josee, the Tiger and the Fish (2020) is a Japanese animated drama from studio BONES you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Kotaro Tamura, 99 minutes. A quiet film about two people who end up steering each other somewhere neither expected.
Tsuneo is a university student saving up to dive in Mexico when he takes a part-time job caring for Josee — a young woman who borrowed her name from a Françoise Sagan novel and rarely leaves home. She draws, reads, and watches the world from her window. Tsuneo is the first person in a long time to look at her and not see the wheelchair first. Voiced by Taishi Nakagawa and Kaya Kiyohara.
The film adapts a short story by Seiko Tanabe, brought to the screen by BONES — the studio behind Fullmetal Alchemist and Wolf's Rain — with a precision that keeps the emotion grounded. No sentimentality, no shortcuts. Watch Josee, the Tiger and the Fish (2020) online on iFILM.
