Kumiko the Treasure Hunter stars Rinko Kikuchi (right) in the titular role as a jaded Japanese woman who discovers a hidden copy of the Coen Brothers’ 1996 film, Fargo, on VHS, believing it to be a treasure map indicating the location of a large case of money.
Also starring Nobuyuki Katsube, Shirley Venard, David Zellner and Nathan Zellner, I’m definitely intrigued by this film’s bizarre premise.
Kumiko the Treasure Hunter is released in the UK on February 20th 2015.
