Lady Kaga Blu-ray

Can tap dancing bring new life to a historic hot-spring town? Starring Fuka Koshiba, Lady Kaga brings laughter, tears and Japanese hospitality to Kaga Onsen on Blu-ray and DVD.

This hospitality entertainment unfolds in the historic Kaga hot-spring area.

The film was inspired by Lady Kaga, a promotional team formed by local inn proprietresses ten years earlier to invigorate Kaga Onsen. The protagonist Yuka Higuchi is played by Fuka Koshiba, one of today’s most closely watched actresses, whose work spans film and television. Matsuda, Nakamura, Yagi, Natsuki, Onogi and Mizushima play the novice proprietresses who form a tap-dance team and struggle alongside Yuka. Ryo Aoki plays Yuka’s former classmate, a Kaga city employee working to promote the hot-spring area.

Set in the appealing, historic Kaga Onsen area, this moving, heartfelt film offers laughter and tears that warm viewers to the core.

Yuka Higuchi (Fuka Koshiba) is the only daughter of the long-established Higuchi inn in Kaga Onsen. Captivated by tap dancing she saw at primary school, she moved to Tokyo hoping to become a tap dancer. Reality did not go as planned, and she abandoned her dream, returned home and began training to become an inn proprietress.

Clumsy at everything she does, Yuka struggles with the training but keeps fighting with her natural cheerfulness and determination. Then a project is launched to revitalise Kaga Onsen. Yuka gathers the novice proprietresses and decides to hold a tap-dance event…
