Tori Girl

A new first-year college student named Yukina Toriyama (Tao Tsuchiya) has just landed a place at a science university. But when she arrives, she is horrified to discover that most of her schoolmates are utter nerds. The one exception to the rule is a handsome senior student named Kei (Mahiro Takasugi). Utterly bewitched by his charms, Yukina Toriyama almost unknowingly agrees when Kei asks her to joins the nerdiest club in the school: the “human-powered flight” club. Believing that doing so will bring her closer to Kei, she decides to volunteer for the role of pilot for the club’s most hair-brained plan yet: To enter the Birdman Rally contest to fly in a human-powered craft across Lake Biwa. But to do so, she will need to fend off competition from star cyclist Sakaba (Shotaro Mamiya) – a man intent on making the pilot’s role his own! “Tori Girl” is a 2017 Japanese comedy movie that was directed by Tsutomu Hanabusa.
