Set in modern-day Tokyo, this award-winning comedy-drama film follows an American actor who struggles to find purpose until he lands an unusual gig : working for a Japanese ‘rental family’ agency, playing stand-in roles for strangers.
As he immerses himself in his client’s worlds, he begins to form genuine bonds that blur the line between performance and reality. Confronting the moral complexities of his work, he rediscovers purpose, belonging, and the quiet beauty of human connection.
