Plot:
In TOKYO!, three of the world's greatest filmmakers come together for an omnibus triptych examining the nature of one unforgettable city as it's shaped by the disparate people who live, work (and even run amok!) inside one enormous, constantly evolving,densely populated Japanese megalopolis - the ravishing and inimitable Tokyo. Triptych, rhapsody, psychogeography, omnibus, urban valentine, freak show, mindwalk and many other things, TOKYO. is a fantasy in three movements that will make you see one of the world's greatest cities - if not any city - in unpredictable new ways. In the tradition of such films as NEW YORK STORIES,NIGHT ON EARTH, PARIS JE T'AIME and NEW YORK JE T'AIME, TOKYO. addresses the timeless question of whether we shape cities, or if cities shape us -in the process revealing the rich humanity at the heart of modern urban life.
