(Noriko no shokutaku)
Sion Sono
Noriko is an ordinary 17 year-old girl. She couldn’t help but feel discomfort with her ordinary life with her family in a suburban town. One day, she discovers an interesting site on the internet where teenage girls from all over Japan gathered. There, Noriko for the first time in her life, feels that she is being understood by others. Noriko runs away from home to seek a new home in Tokyo.
