    • Trivia
      Based on Amélie Nothomb's love affair with Rinri Mizuno when she was living Japan in her early twenties. Although the real-life events took place in the early 1990s, the director set the film in the early 2010s. The real-life events narrated in Tokyo Fiancée took place at the same time than those narrated in Fear and Trembling (2003).
