Portrait of Madame Yuki
Drama
A young woman takes up her new job as the servant of a noblewoman and soon discovers that underneath her facade of luxury lies great unhappiness.
VIBE
A quiet, introspective drama that peels back the layers of admiration to reveal complex, flawed humanity. It's a somber, wistful look at the gap between idealized heroes and the messy reality of their lives.
