Oh Lucy!

Oh Lucy! (2018) is a Japanese-American dramedy you can watch online on iFILM, written and directed by Atsuko Hirayanagi, with Shinobu Terajima leading a cast that includes Koji Yakusho and Josh Hartnett.

Setsuko is a middle-aged office worker in Tokyo — chain smoker, profoundly alone. When her niece Miki drags her to English class, she shows up in a blond wig and a new name: Lucy. Something wakes up in her for the first time in years, and she falls for her American teacher John. When John and Miki quietly leave for California together, Setsuko chases after them — dragging her younger sister across the Pacific. The film handles loneliness without pity, which is exactly what makes it land. Stream Oh Lucy! online on iFILM.
