Description
[Machine Translation] This documentary by an American director born and raised in Japan reexamines the Japan-U.S. relationship through the testimonies and works of artists who knew about the 1960 Security Treaty. In the month leading up to the automatic renewal of the Japan-U.S. Security Treaty in June 1960 under the administration of Nobusuke Kishi, the area around the Diet was filled with demonstrations by citizens against the Security Treaty. It had been only 15 years since the defeat. In that period, only 15 years after the defeat in the war, the artists tell us that the greatest factor that united this movement, which included students, workers, housewives, and people from all walks of life, was the strong will of the citizens to "never go to war again. American director Linda Hoaglund, who was born and raised in Japan and has created English subtitles for many Japanese films, including those directed by Akira Kurosawa, will present the testimony of artists who have been deeply expressing the 60-year Security Treaty issue and the U.S. military base issue through paintings and photographs, and through their works, will force Japanese people to reexamine the relationship between Japan and the United States. Documentary.
