PLOT: A painfully shy Japanese woman named Kumiko (Rinko Kikuchi) finds an old VHS copy of FARGO and becomes convinced that a real bag-full of money is hidden somewhere in Fargo, North Dakota. REVIEW: KUMIKO, THE TREASURE HUNTER is better than it really has any right to be. It's based on an urban legend, where a Japanese woman allegedly came to Fargo looking for the money and died in the process.
