« Après l'effort, le réconfort », dit-on bien volontiers. Après des siècles de bons et loyaux services, deux amis décident de s'octroyer un peu de repos parmi la population tokyoïte. Sous le nom de Mrs Saint, ils louent un petit appartement en colocation et découvrent ensemble la vie terrestre. Mais se familiariser avec la vie quotidienne, les us et coutumes, les aspects pratiques et financiers de l'humanité n'est guère de tout repos, surtout lorsque l'on s'appelle… Jésus et Bouddha !
A grandmother and her grandson navigate love and fame, while crossing paths with Baron Frankenstein.
SAINT☆YOUNG MEN 2nd Century imagines a world where Jesus Christ (Kenichi Matsuyama; Death Note) and Gautama Buddha (Shōta Sometani; Himizu) take a vacation on earth and become roommates in an apartment in Tokyo. When the two attempt to hide their identities and partake in all that modern Japanese society has to offer, including cosplay in the otaku mecca that is Akihabara, hilarious antics are sure to ensue! From shopping for rice cookers to playing the lottery, not to mention an unexpected brush with the law—this film offers a refreshing and imaginative narrative of two supreme beings’ perspectives of the mundanity of everyday life in Japan. Based on the popular slice-of-life manga SAINT☆YOUNG MEN, serialised in Japan since 2006, this comedic series of vignettes featuring Jesus and Buddha are sure to put a smile on your face.
