(JFF 2026) TOKYO TAXI
About Movie
Film veteran YAMADA Yoji returns with his 91st feature, a moving reflection on memory, compassion and human connection. USAMI Koji (KIMURA Takuya) is a hardworking but financially stretched taxi driver, hired to transport his elderly passenger TAKANO Sumire (BAISHO Chieko) from Tokyo to a nursing home in Kanagawa. Initially guarded with one another, Sumire's warmth gradually draws out a tenderness from beneath Koji’s reserved exterior. As the streets of Tokyo pass by outside the window, Sumire begins to share the story of her life, and neither her nor Koji will be left unchanged by the time they arrive at their destination.
