"Set in 1970s Japan and often interpreted as a critical depiction of the student political scene of that time, Kichiku Dai Enkai depicts a radical leftist group whose charismatic leader, Aizawa, has been put in prison. His girlfriend Masami takes over, but is considerably less effective in maintaining the group's cohesion. This has been called the most violent movie ever made, but it's an arthouse favorite."
