What does it take to make someone happy? Wealth? Fame? Power?
 
From a young age, the only thing Sakiko Suzuki cared about was money. Naturally, her family suggested she take her passion for counting and playing with money to find a job working at a bank. But counting other people’s money just wasn’t as fun as having it herself. Bored with her job, Sakiko wishes the bank would get robbed and she could be taken as a hostage…
 
Shinobu Yaguchi–who directed such comedies as Water boys, Swing Girls–spins this get-rich-quick caper comedy.
 
Film presented by the Consulate-General of Japan, The University of Waikato, The Japan Cultural Centre, Sydney (The Japan Foundation).
