Pause at: 0:30 for Kumiko with her only friend. That version of events was a href='' target='_blank'>debunked in 2003, but movies don't have to be true, so we get the weird universe in which a young Japanese woman ditches her whole life to scour the great white American north for hidden cash. Konishi's body was found in North Dakota in 2001, and for years the prevailing theory was that she died in pursuit of exhuming Buscemi's buried loot. The crazy part is, Kumiko is based on a real person named Takako Konishi. She leaves her job and Japan and everything she knows to make her way through the snows of Dakota.

So, Kumiko sets out to find the buried treasure. This wouldn't normally change anyone's life, but Kumiko is desperate for a purpose, and out of that desperation, becomes convinced that Fargo is a documentary about a man (as in, Steve Buscemi's character) who buried a substantial sum of money in the wilds of North Dakota. Rinko Kikuchi ( Pacific Rim) plays Kumiko, an office worker with nothing special going on in her life, until she finds a copy of the movie Fargo on VHS. So this movie has a really strange origin story. This content can also be viewed on the site it originates from.
