[ Story ]
Scenes from an anti-nuclear demonstration held in front of the Prime Minister's official residence by approximately 20,000 people during the summer of 2012 are documented in this film. Historical sociologist Oguma Eiji, author of "Shakai wo Kaeru niwa" and "1968" directs his first visual work.
A year after Occupy Wall St. and two years before Hong Kong's Umbrella Revolution, people held a demonstration outside the Prime Minister's residence to protest policy. Eight people from completely different walks of life prior to the nuclear power plant accident come together in one place brandishing slogans such as "No Nukes!" and "Democracy is in Jeopardy."
