Ubasute
The "yutori" generation of Japan is accused of being one of the laziest in society.

Touma slowly learns how to face himself and improve his lifestyle thanks to their online conversations, and they finally get a chance to meet...

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Ubasute is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.
Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.
A 2014 film from an era before CGI overload, with real performances that still hit hard. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
