Plot

"BAD FILM" paints a legendary and tumultuous portrait of a world teetering on the edge of chaos. Shot in 1995, yet consigned to the annals of unfinished cinema due to monetary constraints, this cinematic gem has finally been unearthed and meticulously reassembled from over 150 hours of previously unseen footage. Preserved in the now virtually extinct Hi-8 format, it bears witness to a time of tumult and transformation. The narrative unfolds on the brink of the new millennium in Tokyo's pulsating Chuo train line, a mere heartbeat away from Hong Kong's impending reunification with China. It's a world where societal norms are crumbling, and primal passions are unleashed in a wild, unregulated dance. Love blossoms amidst pandemonium, sprouting defiantly in the cracks of societal upheaval. The plot hinges on Koenji, a Japanese district now swarmed by Chinese immigrants, triggering an explosive confrontation of epic proportions. The tranquil streets of Shinjuku and the Chuo Line become bloody arenas where Japanese vigilantes and foreign insurgents clash in an escalating tide of violence. The heart of "BAD FILM" beats in its cast, predominantly composed of members from Tokyo GAGAGA, a provocative performance collective birthed by visionary director SONO Sion in 1993. Each frame of this cinematic juggernaut is a testament to their raw talent and indomitable spirit, birthing a work of art that stands as a testament to the power of perseverance and creative audacity.
