Madame Matsudaira, matriarch of an old and illustrious Awaji Island family, after her son and heir's death, sets out to track down her only grandchild - the product of an affair she'd put a halt to years before. By chance the grandson, Sadao, is a bit of a hot head and makes the national papers as she is searching, bringing him to his granny's attention. Reluctantly, he moves to rural Awaji from his Tokyo home - with the hidden agenda of tracking down his birth mother - against his grandmother's wishes. An old enemy of Sadao arrives in Awaji to start a construction project and the ensuing conflict has terrible consequences.<br/><br/><i>Typ: DVD</i>

Set in 19th Century Tokyo, this film follows a lowly coal miner (Akira Kobayashi) who foments a riot against a tyrannical local figure (Tamio Kawaji) who specialises in making peoples lives miserable. The film explores pretty much every segment of the Japan underworld; the Yakuza, the right wing, Unionists and a tattooed geisha-gone-bad, doing just about everything the Japan tourism board denies ever went on in its country; sword play, adultery, riots, pistol fights, treachery, bribery, blackmail and miscellaneous assorted scandalousness. Suzuki let his hair down and rolled up his sleeves for this classic piece of Japanese cinema - a rollicking knees-up of oriental underbelly!<br/><br/><i>Typ: DVD</i>

Suzuki takes a bleakly humorous look at the Japanese youth's tendency towards sadistic violence, positing, it seems, that it's no more than repressed sexuality. The protagonist, Kiroku (Hideki Takahashi), evolves from schoolyard bullyboy into a radical at the vortex of the socio-political revolution of the 1950s.<br/><br/><i>Typ: DVD</i>
