Kei, Kyoko, and Nozomi dream of playing the final high school concert together, but their plans are dashed when their lead vocalist quits the band. Desperate, they recruit the very first person they see: Korean exchange student Son (Doona Bae, The Host, Broker), whose comprehension of Japanese is limited at best. It’s a race against time as the group struggles to learn three songs in three days for the festival’s rock concert. Linda Linda Linda is an effervescent, tenderhearted snapshot of youth, with a soundtrack that fuses bangers from iconic Japanese bands The Blue Hearts and Base Ball Bear with original music composed by James Iha of Smashing Pumpkins. Marking its 20th anniversary, the charming, timeless classic returns in a new 4K restoration.
