"Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift" - plot
Consider the story of this film. Sean Boswell is the protagonist of the movie The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. The actor who played this role is called Lucas Black.
Sean is an ordinary guy from America who wants more than anything else in the world - to become the best street racer in the history of world street racing. Time after time, he takes part in various street competitions, training his skills in driving high-speed cars. But Boswell’s actions could not go unnoticed by law enforcement. Catching him with their bait, the police want to grab a scorcher and sue him in all severity of American law. When the mother of the protagonist finds out about this, she decides to help her non-traveling son at all costs. It was from her filing that Sean flies to Japan for his warrior dad.

Life with a clean slate
A new kind of motorsport is very interested in Sean. Having extensive experience in the field of street racing, he decides to try himself in something new and unusual. But he still does not suspect that drifting has its own strict rules and that victory in this sport comes at a very high price ...
