“Classical long takes jostle alongside Somai’s mobile camera, random intertitles, and frequent breaks for pop music in a frenzy of post-modern gags but somehow it all just works, and does so with wit and charm.”
—Windows on Worlds
Cocaine, blood, and musical numbers—zigzagging through an increasingly batty series of plot contrivances, this ever upping of the antes sees three teens battle it out with a ruthless yakuza gang while on the hunt for their school bully in an endless summer adventure from the minds of Chieko and Leonard Schrader (THE MAN WHO STOLE THE SUN, MISHIMA: A LIFE IN FOUR CHAPTERS). With Tatsuya Fuji (IN THE REALM OF THE SENSES) and Masatoshi Nagase (MYSTERY TRAIN). New 2K restoration.
