GREAT PRETENDER

Makoto Edamura, a young man who considers himself one of Japan's greatest swindlers, finds his confidence shattered during a routine con in Asakusa. He and his partner attempt to scam a seemingly naive French tourist, only to be outsmarted and humiliated. The target reveals himself as Laurent Thierry, a master con artist operating on a global scale.

Forced into Laurent's world, Edamura is whisked away to Los Angeles, reluctantly joining an elaborate sting against a powerful movie producer and drug lord. As he is drawn deeper into high-stakes international schemes, Makoto must navigate a web of lies and shifting alliances, constantly questioning if he is a partner or merely another pawn in Laurent's grand, inscrutable designs.
