Hula Girls

synopsis


It is 1965 and in Japan, the country has started to shift from coal to oil. One by one the old mining towns begin to show their decline. but for one small town way up north, its leaders and mining company officials have come up with an idea to develop Japan's first Hawaiian village. And what's a Hawaiian Village without a troupe of Hula dancers?

The only problem is, no one knows how to do the dance, or even knows what a Hula is! In this hilariously touching comedy, the scepticism and conservatism of the locals is gradually overcome as their daughters fall under the spell of one talented and determined dance instructor from the big city of Tokyo.

Based on a true story, Hula Girls is a heart-warming comedy about coal miner's daughters who took a once-in-a-lifetime chance to escape their monotonous lives, only to become unwitting heroes to their depressed mining town as well as the whole of Japan.
