(1970, Japan, 94')

Restoration Oshima Productions LTD

A young man from a group of militant filmmakers witnesses the suicide of one of their members, who had a Bolex camera in his possession, which is immediately seized by the police. The protagonist desperately tries to recover the footage shot by the deceased and, with the help of his girlfriend, uncovers what he had filmed before his death. This experimental film embodies the revolutionary spirit of 1960s Japanese cinema, blending metacinema and influences from the French Nouvelle Vague with elements of ‘pink cinema.’
