Synopsis

Naotake Fukushima comes to California in the 1950s to sell Japanese cars in this humorous and heartfelt story about Japanese-American relations after World War II.

Naotake finds himself in a business deal with the spunky Rosie Yoshida, who offers to help him sell cars so she can buy her dream strawberry farm.

Her husband, a shell-shocked American WWII vet, also comes along for the ride, resulting in a wildly comic police chase across California that turns Naotake into an international hero.
