Description
[Machine Translation] From amateur to professional! A "true story" of a man who achieved the first ever great achievement at the age of 26. That is the time limit to become a professional Go player. Toshiaki Toyoda, who was a member of the Shore Shogi Association from the age of 9 to 17, took on the challenge of directing this film in his 20th year as a director, and for the first time in 16 years since "Aoi Haru", he invited Ryuhei Matsuda to play the main role in this autobiographical work. --Shoji Segawa, a.k.a. "Shotan", who has been devoted to Shogi since he was in elementary school, had his dream of becoming a Shogi player cut short when he ran into an age limit. After leaving the Shogakukai, Shotan had been leading an ordinary life without Shogi for a while, but his father's death came suddenly. With the support of his best friend Yuuno and other people around him, he overcame various difficulties and picked up a piece again. However, he is released from the pressure of aiming to become a professional and realizes once again how fun and exciting it can be. At the age of 35, Shottan's second challenge of his life begins. Booklet enclosed. Included as video extras are interviews and making-of, a collection of events, a special dialogue (between Shoji Segawa and Zenji Hanyu), never-before-seen scenes, a special program "The Miracle of Crying Baby Shottan," an interview with director Toshiaki Toyoda, and the trailer. Barrier-free audio guide and subtitles are included.
