``Etoile Blooming in Paris'' is a story set in Paris in the early 20th century that depicts Fujiko, who dreams of becoming a painter, and Chizuru, who is a master of the naginata but is attracted to ballet, as they pursue their dreams even though they hit a wall in Paris. The story takes place in the early 20th century, the era of Impressionism in painting, where artists such as Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Edgar Degas were active. In the film, famous paintings such as Monet's ``Impression Sunrise'', which gave rise to the term ``Impressionism'', Renoir's ``The Ball at the Moulin de la Galette'', Jean Bellot's ``Parisienne at the Place de la Concorde'', Jules Pasquin's ``The Schoolgirl'', and Mucha's ``Summer'', one of Mucha's ``The Four Seasons'', appear as replicas created to recreate the atmosphere of the time. One of the artworks sold by Fujiko's uncle Wakabayashi, the owner of the gallery, is Kitagawa Utamaro's ``Female Sogology Ten Bodies, Affair Affairs.''
"Etoile Blooming in Paris" will be released on March 13th. Taniguchi is the director, Reiko Yoshida is the screenwriter, and Katsuya Kondo is the original character designer. The cast includes Ami Toma as Fujiko and Rina Arashi as Chizuru.
