Hitsudan Hostess *Keiko Kitagawa EN Subtitled/Streaming

Synopsis:Rie Saito/Keiko Kitagawa (One of the dramas she was recently on was: "Nazotoki wa Dinner no Atode" loses her ability to hear at the age of one year old. She grows up as a rebellious child and running away from her home in her hometown of Aomori. By writing calligraphy on her notepad in a high-end night club in Ginza, and later becomes "Number One" hostess. She communicates to her clients through her writing and eases their anxiety. This movie is based on the true life experience of Rie Saito; who later publishes it into a novel, and it becomes a best seller!

Personal note: Most people "have" different opinions and views of people in the "mizu-shobai" profession. Mizu-shobai means "night club" or "liquor related/night profession". (host, hostess, bartender, and bartendress). The movie shows a different side of what others perceive of these professionals.
