Synopsis
Kamikaze Girls (下妻物語, 2004) is a Japanese comedy directed by Tetsuya Nakashima — watch online on iFILM. Kyoko Fukada plays Momoko, a girl who spends her days in elaborate Rococo-style lolita dresses and daydreams of 18th-century Versailles while stranded in the dull provincial town of Shimotsuma. The real world holds zero interest for her.
Into this comes Ichigo (Anna Tsuchiya), a yankii biker girl with black lipstick and a short fuse. By every reasonable measure, they have nothing in common. They become close friends anyway.
Based on Nobara Takemoto's novel, the film found a devoted following in lolita and street-fashion communities worldwide. Nakashima — who later made the brutally dark school drama Confessions (2010) — shows here that he can be precise about joy too. Stream Kamikaze Girls (2004) online on iFILM.
