THE GLAMOROUS LIFE OF SACHIKO HANAI
Dir. Mitsuru Meike, 2003
Japan. 90 mins.
In Japanese with English subtitles.
Special thanks to Palm Pictures.

No Pink Film retrospective would be complete without the absolutely charismatic weirdness of THE GLAMOROUS LIFE OF SACHIKO HANAI, a cult hit by the director Meike Mitsuru. Although an amazing film in its own right, SACHIKO is also an eerie time capsule of George W. Bushs first few years of office, and is full of entirely un-subtle political overtones. And how could it not? One of the films main characters is Dubyas middle finger! In the film, a call-girl the eponymous Sachiko Hanai accidentally witnesses an altercation between North Korean and Middle Eastern spies. When Sachiko is shot in the forehead, the bullet does not kill her, but instead gives her extraordinary genius and mental prowess.

When she ends up finding a metal capsule containing George W. Bushs finger, whose fingerprint is singularly capable of launching a nuclear holocaust, she must make sure that the wrong side doesnt find it or else. The result is a wacky spoof on a political thriller, with memorable and hilarious scenes that will doubtlessly lodge into the viewers brain like Sachikos magic bullet. First released in 2003, the film has subsequently played at over 20 film festivals around the world.
