His wit and humor also reveal the origins of Japanese and ancient Roman bathing. Witness this epic, fantastical comedy, with both time-travelling humour and a touching love story!
The Embassy is proud to show this film in Luxembourg for the first time, and to introduce Japanese bath culture with the familiar local ancient Roman history of baths in the region. The Japanese film was shot in the Italian Cinecittà studios, the largest film studio in Europe, where impressive ancient Roman film sets are used for many famous international productions.
