Favela High-Tech

Overview

It narrates in a near-future Tokyo the wild love affair between Dirka, a Japanese-Brazilian girl who works as a nightclub hostess to pay for her ailing Japanese father's debts, and Vadim, a young Russian drug delivery driver. Dirka yearns to return to the vaguely remembered Brazil of her youth. Vadim is sunk by remorse at having got his brother killed back in Russia.
