Notes

In-your-face TV reporter Kinameri (Yuya Uchida) has reported on a number of cases that occurred in 1985. Showbiz scandals, Kazuyoshi Miura before being arrested, and the crash of the JAL jumbo jet, etc... Yojiro Takita’s directorial debut, which was difficult to be released in theaters at that time because of its radical content. The film was exhibited at the Cannes Film Festival.
