On November 28th, actress Nakama Yukie attended a press conference for the upcoming 3D film, "Tempest".

Set in the late Edo period, the film portrays the story of a woman named Mazuru, who disguises herself as Son Neion to protect the Ryukyu Kingdom. It started off as a stage play back in February, and was later adapted into a drama series in July.

As her third time starring in this production, Nakama expressed, "I've been playing the same role for over a year, so when we started filming, I felt that I could save the Ryukyu." She continued, "To be able to feel that my�hometown of Okinawa was the Ryukyu Kingdom is an inheritance of a lifetime."

The biggest highlight of the film is the three-dimensional hologram. A virtual image of Nakama's character Son Neion appeared beside Nakama, who appeared at the event as Manzuru. Seeing this, co-stars Tanihara Shosuke and Takaoka Saki were moved to excitement.
