Sinopsis

In Tokyo, a man named Johnnie Walker—a Jewish Japanese citizen—stages street provocations with his Irish wolfhound, seeking recognition in a society that marginalizes him. Meanwhile, the filmmaker traces the legacy of Kumiko Muraoka, muse of Chris Marker’s The Koumiko Mystery (1964), from Tokyo to Paris. Blending biography, fiction, and essay, the film explores identity, narration, and the politics of cuteness in a world shaped by memory, power, and performance.
