Sing a bit of harmony at Monterey Cinemas Howick

Sing a bit of harmony

109 mins | Rated PG (Coarse language)

Directed by Yasuhiro Yoshiura

Starring Satoshi Hino, Kazuyuki Okitsu, Mikako Komatsu, Haruka Fukuhara, Tao Tsuchiya


Introducing an AI twist to high school drama, anime feature Sing a Bit of Harmony imagines a world where technology has, refreshingly, not given rise to a dystopian nightmare but instead made convenient tweaks to daily life. A classic loner, schoolgirl Satomi’s fortune takes a turn when popular new student Shion arrives at school with a big secret and penchant for breaking into song. Unbeknownst to the rest of the school, Shion is a human-like AI developed by Satomi’s mother, being put through an unauthorised test to see if she can pass as human among local school kids. It soon becomes clear Shion has no intention of blending in, instead becoming something of a high-tech fairy godmother, hacking the school’s gadgetry to help her fellow teens with various romantic woes. Japanese creator and director Yasuhiro Yoshiura give age-old tropes (the mean popular girl, the overlooked geek) the Mary Poppins-meets-replicant treatment, solving classic teen dilemmas through this winsome, songbird AI.
