- Tadanobu Asano (Mongol) plays a drifter who jumps ship from Okinawa looking for solace from the gridlock of memories filling his mind. He winds up in the Dive Bar, where he comes into contact with its similarly disaffected" patrons including Susie (Mavis Xu), Georgina (Georgina Dobson) and the gay, alcoholic Australian owner (Kevin Sherlock).
