Plot:
Koji Wakamatsu, Japan's most controversial filmmaker, brilliantly reconstructs the most troubling episode in the bloody history of Japanese student-radical extremism through the true story of the United Red Army faction, which had its roots in the 60's when Japanese students protested America using Japan as a staging base for its war in Vietnam.
In 1972, 14 members of the United Red Army faction lynched each other during group "self-criticism" sessions while training in the mountains and the survivors holed up at the Asama Sanso Mountain Lodge,
which quickly degenerated into a ten-day stand-off with the police that is one of the pivotal moments in Japanese history, as famous in Japan as Martin Luther King's assassination is in America.
Wakamatsu's film is an earnest attempt to process the shock that the Japanese left was experiencing at the time and to grasp the motivation of the militant students.
A gut-wrenching docudrama underlaid with electrifying psychedelic rock music by Sonic Youth founder member Jim O'Rourke.

-FACT-

Japanese Red Army Faction & German Red Army Faction trained together with Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine a.k.a ( PFLP). The 60s -70s was an era of crazy left wing hippies going out gun blazing, blowing buildings up, hijacking planes, hostage taking, kidnapping, toture; etc. This movie is very smillar to the 2008 german movie '' The Baader Meinhof Complex '' .

@texas224 you sound like someone who knows absolutely nothing about the german red army faction.

@GodCutter I've known about this 1972 incident for so long and a few movies have been made about it too. It happened after the Mishima Incident two years later. I’m Happy to see a Movie about it. Can you give me a link to a book or official report about it? Nothing like is really talked about in America; Japanese affairs or pop culture that is, so it’s good to see someone who knows their material.

@texas224 thats not a fact at all, that's merely an opinion from a bias southern red-neck?

The USA has committed and continues to commit the worst atrocities on earth, Guantanamo bay is but one example: drugging interrogation, abuse,& human rights violations.

The USA has a legacy of brutality spanning centuries
