Posted by luna6 Leave a Comment

Hirokazu Koreeda’s upcoming film “Air Doll” has finished filming sometime in late January, 2009. The film stars South Korean actress Du-na Bae, along with Japanese actors Arata and Itsuji Itao. “Air Doll” will also feature a cameo appearance by Joe Odagiri. Cinematography is handled by noted taiwanese cameraman Pin Bing Lee (Secret, The Sun Also Rises, and After this Our Exile).
The film itself has the unusual premise of Du-na Bae playing an inflatable air doll that magically comes to life one day. She then takes a walk outside and eventually winds up entering a video rental store. There she spots a young man named Junichi (played by Arata) and falls in love.
“Air Doll” will screen at the upcoming Cannes Film Festival and then have its Japanese theatrical premiere sometime this fall.
