A delightful comedy that follows the unexpected adventures of Yuriko, the ten-year-old granddaughter of Tatsio Yamada, a powerful yakuza. Despite Yamada's fearsome reputation, his greatest concern is the safety and well-being of Yuriko. When Yamada encounters some temporary difficulties in his line of work, he makes the difficult decision to send Yuriko to Rome for her own protection.
However, fate takes an unexpected turn when the plane carrying Yuriko is forced to land in Russia due to technical problems. In this foreign land, Yuriko finds herself alone without her usual bodyguards. Undeterred by the unfamiliar surroundings, Yuriko displays remarkable strength and resilience as she navigates her way through the challenges that lie ahead.
During her journey, Yuriko crosses paths with Alex, a charming yet unreliable individual who has never been to Japan, and Yuriko doesn't speak Russian. Despite their language barrier and cultural differences, Yuriko's presence in Alex's life becomes a turning point. With its blend of humor, adventure, and unlikely alliances, the film invites viewers on a delightful journey filled with laughter, heart, and the joy of unexpected connections.
