Product Description
A dream job rapidly becomes a nightmare for Amélie, a Japanese-born Belgian woman, who suffers a series of increasingly humiliating demotions after she lands a job as an interpreter at a large Japanese corporation. Sylvie Testud earned the French equivalent of the Academy Award® for her haunting performance as the put-upon, but indomitable Amélie. Director Alain Corneau’s (Tous les matins du monde) perversely funny adaptation of Amélie Nothomb’s 1999 autobiographical novel loses nothing in translation in deftly dissecting the universal absurdities of corporate culture.
Recently watched it. Neat little movie. It had a little touch of Lost in Translation to it. Some awesome views of Tokyo too. I'm not sure if this is an accurate portrayal of Japanese office life or not, but I suspect there is some truth to the level of accuracy expected.
