## Description

A life-size Air Doll lives in a shabby apartment in Tokyo. She cannot speak, nor can she move. But she is the only companion her middle-aged master has. He talks to her, puts her in a bath and makes love with her every day after he returns from work. This routine life is disrupted when fantasy turns into reality. The Air Doll suddenly comes to life, filled with a soul. Like a newborn baby, she doesn't understand what is going on around her, but she sees a world waiting to be explored outside the apartment. Eventually venturing to the outside world, the Air Doll is fascinated by everything she sees, and though she meets many people in all walks of life, they can't seem to provide her an answer to what "being alive" means. When the Air Doll wanders into a video store, her world is forever changed. She meets Junichi, the clerk, and immediately falls in love with him. Air Doll begins working in the store and everyday, she and Junichi become closer: they go to the movies and explore the city together...like a couple. Everything is going perfectly for the Air Doll, until one day when her hand is accidentally cut and she begins to deflate in front of Junichi... A romantic fantasy that explores the complexities of love and loss, joy and pain, fantasy and reality, internationally acclaimed director Kore-eda Hirokazu returns with this bittersweet love story that examines the intricacies and frailties of human existence.

Review: Cold hands makes a warm heart - As a fan of the new wave of quirky Japanese films, I'm happy to take a punt on most things. And the description of this film is pretty far out there. An inflatable sex doll comes to life and engages in a bittersweet romance. But that is not what I found and desertcart's description is a little misleading and does not do the film justice. This is not quirky pink skin flick stroke love story; instead it is a very serious and sad art film about the meaning of life. Given my own surprise, I thought I might write a few words to let you know what you get. This film is a low budget one with an art house aesthetic. It is slow, claustrophobic, and quiet. The only special effect - a very minor one - is saved for the final scene and it is very understated. Instead, the film is an exploration of the meaning of life, love, loss, and loneliness. It is a thoughtful, philosophic film that forces you to think about your own life. The story is very straightforward. An inflatable sex toy comes to life and enters the world as a young adult, but in a childlike state with no education or understanding of matters. She tries to make sense of things, but is seduced by the beauty surrounding her. Anything new and unusual catches her attention. After this initial fascination, she meets a range of people who help her reflect on the purpose of living. The film gets darker and darker in its contemplative mood and by the end, I found it heart breaking and deeply moving. One of the saddest films I've seen in many years. In case you're wondering, there is a healthy dose of mainly female nudity and sexual intercourse throughout the film, but no front bottoms. It seemed appropriate given the subject matter and had a naturalistic and unself-conscious feel. I thought the level of nudity was well judged because it gave you a genuine sense that you are watching real `people' and real events. This film really took me by surprise. I was expecting a quirky pink movie, but instead saw a very serious and reflective art house film about the meaning of life. It left me quite moved thinking about serious themes in my own life. I'm not quite sure I know what the film's message is, but the strength of the film is that I'm still thinking about it.
Review: Pleasantly Surprised - I went into this expecting it to be some sleezey fettish type flick, I was wrong. This is actually a great movie with a really warming story that flows along nicely. Most of the characters were quite memorable and some scenes were hilarious. If you open your mind you'll really enjoy this one.

### ⭐⭐⭐ OK, worth a look but fairly lightweight
*by M***N on 16 November 2014*

Very interesting Japanese film that I felt could have been so much better then it was. An old man buys a blow up rubber dolly, and then when he is out she comes to life and starts to explore the world, sometimes with tragic, sometime with very funny results. The performances are all that are required and the story nice enough, but it just never took a hold on me, which is a pity as I was looking forward to watching this for a long time. An OK film but that is about the best I can say about it, sorry
