A young Belgian girl, Amélie, fulfills her dream to go to Tokyo. To earn a living, she decides to give private French lessons and meets Rinri, her first and only student, a young Japanese man with whom she soon has an intimate relationship. Amélie is infatuated with all things Japanese. She was born in Japan, but her parents returned to Belgium when she was a little girl, and she's always dreamed of going back. Now, as a young adult, she finally has her chance. She moves to Tokyo, finds a small suburban apartment, and immerses herself in Japanese culture. Then, working as a French tutor, Amélie meets her match in Rinri. He's a chivalrous and pensive Japanese student obsessed with all things French - which soon includes Amélie, even though she's Belgian. With all the awkwardness and wonder of first love, Amélie and Rinri delight in exploring Tokyo and each other. (Cinemax)
