Synopsis
Love Exposure
The story of a teenage boy named Yu, who falls for Yoko, a girl he runs into while operating for the sake of sin as an "up-skirt" photographer. His attempts to woo her are complicated by a spot of cross-dressing – which convinces Yoko that she is lesbian – dalliances with kung-fu and crime, and a constant struggle with the guilt that's a legacy of his Catholic upbringing.

Amin returns to Sète after studying in Paris, still dreaming of cinema. By chance, an American producer on vacation takes an interest in his project and wants his wife, Jess, to play the lead role. But fate, whimsical as ever, has its own rules.
