What Josee, the Tiger and the Fish is
Here's a film that knows its way around an unlikely meet-cute. Tsuneo, a marine biology student, finds himself begrudgingly caring for Josee, a disabled young woman with a sharp tongue. The two forge a bond, navigating independence, intimacy, and their own limitations. It's a romance that is, at least, fairly direct about its intentions.
