In 1960 students in Osaka lived in dormitories for their examinations. In Tokyo students worked till late at night for their entrance examinations upon which their whole future life depended. Resulting in rebellion and political engagement. Amongst them the world's highest suicide stats. Camera: Michael Rogge
