A Punk rock musical that feels authentically punk. A trashy, ill-shot vision of late 70s underground Japan + a sci-fi story.

|---|---|
| synopsis | Set in a barren, futuristic Tokyo of highways and wastelands, a rowdy group of punk bands and their fans gather to protest slow, boring, Japanese living. |
