Wake Up, Girls! The Movie

Synopsis

In "Wake Up, Girls!," Green Leaves Entertainment is barely scraping by due to a critical shortage of talent. To reverse their fortunes, President Junko Tange decides to break into the idol singer market and orders her subordinate Matsuda to form a girl group, no matter how much effort it takes. Since no ready-made groups are available, Matsuda takes on the tough job of scouting girls with promise who aren't already part of the Japanese music scene. Her recruits include a maid café worker, a lead vocalist who was kicked out of another band, and a young teenager barely thirteen years old. Although they start far from being established stars, the group hopes to rise through pure dedication and passion. With time and hard work, these girls aim to captivate all of Japan with their music.
