La Ragazza: Living with Francesca

Yuji is an artist working out of a modest Tokyo apartment, when he suddenly receives a letter from his mother informing—not asking—him about an Italian girl coming to live with him while she attends university. Supposedly the two have a history, but forgotten memories lend little in the way of preparing either party for the inevitable awkwardness to come. Left with little say in the matter, Yuji’s bachelorhood comes to an end, and his life with Francesca begins.

Life is beginning to settle down for Yuji and his new roommate, Francesca, but as luck would have it, things can’t ever just stay quiet. When an unexpected visitor arrives with a proposal, answers to questions which Yuji never even thought to ask arise—decisions have to be made and lines must be drawn. What really brought Fran all the way to Japan? What does Yuji have anything to do with it? And how will it potentially change his life forever?
