Wakamusha (2024)

Wataru, a quiet worker at a factory, Eiji, a hot-blooded employee at a restaurant, and Mitsunori, seemingly gentle a caregiver, are childhood friends. “Unhappiness becomes drama, you know.” One late afternoon in late autumn, the three of them walk towards a graveyard overlooked by a headless Jizo statue. There lies the fourth childhood friend who passed away in an accident several years ago. “Hatred, fear, anger, sadness. If we could turn all of those dramas into 'enjoyment' and live, don't you think that would be the best life?” “It's a revolution. Let's start a revolution.” And so, they go on a rampage under the guise of “social reform”, confronting minor infractions and discrimination in the town recklessly. Gradually, their “social reform” transforms into “violence.” This is the story of young people resisting the future while questioning life amidst their nowhere to turn to in daily lives.
