Nagisa Ōshima'nın yönettiği bu provokatif film, üniversite sınavlarına hazırlanan dört gencin yaşadıkları üzerinden Japon toplumunun baskıcı ve ikiyüzlü ahlak anlayışını eleştirir. Utangaçlıkları ve cinsel bastırılmışlıkları, onları iktidara ve düzene karşı anarşik eylemlere yöneltir. Film, müstehcen şarkılar ve absürt olaylar aracılığıyla savaş sonrası kuşağın hayal kırıklıklarını, otoriteye isyanını ve cinsel tabuları yıkma arzusunu cesur ve satirik bir dille yansıtır.

This gripping historical drama depicts a clash of swordsmen, secret government spies, mysterious thieves, robbers and roving samurai who want to take possession of the “Sword of Heaven and Earth.” The film stars the father and son of Jushiro Konoe and Hiroki Matsukata.
