    a brave act in a democratic beginner country

    I have seen this film in Tokyo last night. little budget, preparation and corporation must be... still in a country like Japan, where media and entertainment industries are too weak against influence by big corporations like KEIDANREN, the main suppoters of ABE administration, this attempt has to be claimed as a brave action. you can' t imagine but it is actually true that in Japan now, all actors in this movie could lose their current positions in the main entertainment media because of the participating in this piece.

    TV movie that wants more

    I put 5 stars due to the other commentator point of view, that is good; if not I would let 4 or 3 stars. The Director is not good; the acting is poor and the story board is barely cohesive. But the "Perception" of the evil of the "Power" and the sordid mechanisms that only prejudice the weakest link is what is important here. Japan is a great Country because of their people not because of the Power itself. Yes; is other type of Democracy but I live in a country where populism is at the Control and nothing good happened. Social problems everywhere.
