Trailer for April Bride, which screened at the 2009 Hawaii International Film Festival.
This emotional drama chronicles the tragic romance between the spirited and endearing Chie (Nana Eikura) and handsome salaryman Taro (Eita). From the day they accidentally meet at work, Chie and Taro appear to be a perfect couple in love. But it soon becomes clear that not everything is perfect in their lives when a sudden crisis in Chie's health tests their devotion to each other. Through the ups and downs, Chie, Taro and all those around them, maintain a positive outlook and are determined to make each day a miracle. A number one box office draw in Japan, this film is based on the true story of Chie Nagashima, the subject of a 2007 news report and Japanese documentary. Director Ryuichi Hiroki takes Chie's inspirational story and crafts a touching film that is a tribute to the strength of the human heart.
