If you loved movies such as Shonen Merikensack and GS Wonderland, then this one, which predates the former, will impress you as well. The story is set in the 80s rock scene and revolves around Nakajima (Kazunobu Mineta), the lead singer of a band called 'Speed Way'. Because he refuses to write trite, pop-friendly songs he is constantly at odds with his own record company. However, he refuses to bend on his rock principles simply for better record sales. The most interesting parts of this movie is how they pay homage to music icon, Bob Dylan who gave the filmmaker his blessing, which is no small feat itself, especially for a Japanese indie debut.

A comedy of a yakuza family that goes into show business.

En mer de Béring, une petite île est la proie d’étranges oiseaux carnivores se nourrissant de ses habitants. Lorsque l’un de ces "Gyaos" subit une mutation physique au contact de la matière radioactive, la situation dégénère. Tokyo se retrouve alors la proie de la créature gigantesque qui cherche un nouveau territoire de chasse. Face à cette menace, le gouvernement va devoir se résoudre à s’allier avec le prédateur ancestral de l’oiseau : le Gamera. Mais une alliance est-elle vraiment possible ?
