Swing Girls

Swing Girls (スウィングガールズ, Suwingu Gāruzu) is a Japanese 2004 teen comedy film directed and co-written by Shinobu Yaguchi.

The cast includes Juri Ueno, Yuta Hiraoka, Shihori Kanjiya, Yuika Motokariya and Yukari Toyashima.

They walk back to deliver the lunches to the band, but they have spoiled in the summer heat, and all but their cymbal player, Takuo Nakamura, who missed out on his meal, becomes sick.

As the new school year begins, Tomoko buys a saxophone and discovers Takuo playing his keyboard.

The girls get supermarket jobs to earn money, but Tomoko and several others lose their wages when a cooking demonstration gets out of hand, triggering the store's fire sprinkler system.

With the money, the girls buy cheap damaged instruments, and the two rockers convince their ex-boyfriends, who operate a wrecking yard, to repair them.

The group, now dubbed Swing Girls, play their first public show; the performance goes badly, but Kaori is given advice by an anonymous jazz fan.

Swing Girls is typical 17-piece big band
