The vice president and section leader, both men, are boors, but her immediate supervisor, Ms. Mori, is beautiful and trustworthy. Amélie’s downfall begins when she speaks perfect Japanese to clients.

    An interesting movie about female workers in Japanese companies, but I was very surprised that someone can speak the language so well, but at the same time knows so little about the Japanese business culture, as the main character showed. She made mistake after mistake and represented herself as someone who knows very little about the Japanese society. A good movie, worth watching, especially if you plan to work in a Japanese company. :D

    i’ve seen this movie when it came out in France. i liked. i’m a fan of Sylvie Testud. she’s a great actress but this is not her best role… this movie is kind of autobiographical since the author, AMélie Nothomb, lived in Japan for many years… and i must say that she is quite an interesting character herself…
