Japanese BL Romance ‘The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese’ is Now Available Worldwide

OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS: Despite being a married man, Otomo Kyoichi has no qualms about cheating on his wife. In fact, he’s had a number of affairs over the years and is currently keeping a mistress. Sick of her husband’s infidelity, Kyoichi’s wife hires Imagase Wataru, a private detective, to catch her cheating husband in the act. Little does she know, Wataru and Kyoichi are old university friends.

Skilled at what he does, it doesn’t take Wataru long to catch up with his old friend. Presenting Kyoichi with an impressive amount of incriminating evidence, Wataru strikes a bargain. He’ll keep Kyoichi’s affair a secret in exchange for a kiss. Reluctantly, Kyoichi agrees to Wataru’s request, leading them to share a kiss that’s anything but innocent. Soon after, Wataru catches Kyoichi in a moment of infidelity once again. Threatening to tell Kyoichi’s wife the truth, Kyoichi bribes his friend with another steamy makeout session.

Fed up with Kyoichi’s cheating, his wife eventually divorces him, leaving Kyoichi free to spend as much time with Wataru as he likes. As the two draw closer, powerful emotions begin to take over but not all of them are positive. Can a chronic cheater and the man who’s had a crush on him for nearly a decade find a way to live happily ever after?

The movie is also screened at the 26th Bucheon International Fantastic (BIFAN) Film Festival’s Special Program: Boys, Be, Love along with ‘Semantic Error‘ and ‘Cherry Magic: The Movie’.
