Sakuran / さくらん

So today was the event of my week (says a lot for my week i know) me and some friends (7 of us in total) went to London to see a new japanese film, Sakuran, Set in 18th Century Edo, Japan - “Sakuran” traces the life of Kiyoha as she ascents from the lowly courtesan ranks to the high class position of Oiran in the steamy red-light district of Yoshiwara. Sakuran takes the familiar feudal era Tokyo and infuses it with the hip modern day style of Tokyo. With an epic rock/jazz soundtrack and stunning visuals, a very good film, extremely interesting to watch. Im not gonna give to much away, go and see it.
