Film description

Struggling young filmmaker Shuji is dedicated to changing the state of cinema. Shouting passionately in the street for radical change in public taste, he longs to bring back the artistic quality of the cinema classics. One evening, during one of his rooftop cinephile screenings, two thugs come and take Shuji away to an old boxing gym turned yakuza office/bar. Boss man Masaki informs Shuji that his brother Shingo borrowed lots of money to finance Shuji’s filmmaking. His brother has been beaten to death for failure to pay back the loans. The responsibility now falls on Shuji. Shuji decides that the only way to pay off the debt is to become a human punching bag in the gym’s toilets where his brother was killed. For a price per punch, gang members can hit Shuji’s six-pack until he can’t take anymore...

i There are no scheduled screenings.
