Mrs. GREEN APPLE's new song "Tenko" serves as the theme song for the upcoming film "#RealFaces Please Talk," featuring stars Motoki Omori and Fuga Kikuchi. The highly anticipated film recently unveiled its latest trailer along with its striking poster on March 19, 2025.
Based on the novel by Shinichiro Kessei, which has seen remarkable success with around 700,000 copies in circulation, the movie encapsulates captivating themes surrounding the consequences of life choices. In this adaptation, Kikuchi portrays Kiriyama, a character entangled in a web of financial woes that leads him to become a speaker on a scandal-exposing platform.
The narrative follows Kiriyama's rise within an interactive live-streaming channel called "#RealFaces Please Talk," where he uses gossip and revelations to earn money through viewer donations. A surprising twist arises when Suzuki, played by Omori, unexpectedly steps in as the next speaker, leading to an unraveling of shocking truths that may alter their lives forever.
The newly released trailer offers a glimpse into this tense environment, showcasing how Kiriyama gets involved in a series of life-altering decisions while grappling with his complicated relationship with Suzuki. Themes of betrayal and moral dilemmas come forth as audiences are treated to riveting scenes, including Kiriyama confronting Suzuki while he recalls tragic memories.
In a comment about the creative process, Omori reflected on the task of writing the song "Tenko" for the film. He stated, "I thought I would depict the song ‘Tenko’ more in a future context, but the timing and circumstances have contributed uniquely to its creation, and I feel deeply moved by it.” His direct involvement as both the lead actor and lyricist showcases an intricate connection between the story and its musical interpretation.
The impactful visuals from the trailer emphasize critical moments of emotional intensity, with Suzuki weeping and Kiriyama demonstrating an array of expressions that reflect their tumultuous journey. The film’s poster captures this tension, featuring Suzuki with tears streaming down his face alongside Kiriyama, whose expression conveys turmoil and contemplation. Together, they embody a narrative that tackles the difficult subject of life choices and the responsibilities that encompass them.
As anticipation builds for the film's release, the combination of an engaging plot, evocative music, and compelling performances promises to resonate with audiences. The collaboration between Mrs. GREEN APPLE and the film suggests an exciting fusion of narrative and sound that is set to leave a lasting impression when it hits theaters later this year.
