Synopsis:
Three short films compose the movie. Each segment is freely inspired by Tokyo and shot in the heart of the city. "TOKYO!" is a symphony interpreted in three dissonant parts, reflecting the image of the metropolis:

"Interior Design"
The surreal fable of a young couple who moves to Tokyo in search of a future. While the boy's ambition is clear - be a movie maker- the girl drifts gradually apart. Both of them will be drowned in the imensity until the girl, feeling alone, discovers something strange…

"Merde"
A mysterious man spreads confusion on the streets of Tokyo through a succession of irrational and provocative acts. " The Creature of the Sewers " as the media have dubbed him, arouse passion or repulsion. He will be captured, judged and then…

"Shaking Tokyo"
He is a hikikomori - like many others in Japan, he has withdrawn from all contact with the outside world. When the pizza delivery girl faints during an earthquake, the unthinkable happens - the man falls in love. Will he take the unimaginable step : leaving the dead security of his apartment for the streets of Tokyo?

She is angry at her uncle, Nam-il (Park Hae-il), who visited her school as her guardian shamelessly drunk. Ignoring her father's excuses for Nam-il, Hyun-seo is soon engrossed in her aunt Nam-joo's (Bae Du-na) archery tournament on TV.

In an instant, the object reveals itself as a terrifying creature turning the riverbank into a gruesome sea of blood.
