Like Grains of Sand?

[emi♡]

I was on msn movies and i just got curious and did a search on Ayu. Well "Ayumi Hamasaki" didn't turn up, but i did get similar matches and got "Ayumi Hamazaki" and since some people spell her name like that i checked it out, and it says that she starred in a movie called "Like Grains of Sand" here's the Synopsis:

Ryosuke Hashiguchi follows up on his critically acclaimed debut Hatachi No Binetsu -- a film about gay hustlers -- with this emotionally honest film about growing up. Shuji Ito (Yoshinori Okada) is a gay high school senior in love with his best friend, the naïve and straight-laced Hiroyuki Yoshida (Kouta Kusano). Yet Ito is too afraid of messing up his friendship with Yoshida and destroying his persona as a "normal" high school student to tell him. Meanwhile, Yoshida as fallen for the new transfer student Kasane Aihara (Ayumi Hamazaki), who harbors her own dark secret -- a brutal rape has left her unable to respond to anything sexual. Her classmates' usual schoolgirl politics bore her and she bluntly tells them so. At the same time, shy Ayako Shimizu (Kumi Takada) has fallen for Yoshida while Aihara finds herself strangely drawn to Ito. She senses his secret, which, however much he tries to maintain his facade, sets him apart.

and i just wanted to know, is this Ayu?

I still haven't downloaded the movie yet.

"Like Grains of Sand" is its English title... its japanese title is "nagisa no SINBAD", the same as a 70's jpop song by Pink Lady (so it may be an older story, pretty well-known in japan, I dunno though).

Yep that's her. Actually if you do a search you should be able to find out stuff about it from this forum.

Yeah, it's Aiko! I'm mega-obsessed with her. I own everything she's released, 'cept some dorama DVDs.
