Cyborg She

Jiro (Keisuke Koide) usually spends his birthday alone, but this year, he gets the gift of a lifetime when a goofy but beautiful girl (Haruka Ayase) celebrates the occasion with him — only to vanish mysteriously at the end of the night. A year later, she returns with bizarre news: She’s a cyborg from the future who’s been sent to protect him. Writer-director Jae-young Kwak blends sci-fi with romantic comedy in this unique Japanese charmer.
