Especially when Ueda finds himself among the counter culture artists and dropouts of the city, an interesting glimpse of the times in Japan. The all girl band, dressed in their minis, in the underground mod club are a sensation , sadly no info on them ? ... Kiyoshi Atsumi plays with great vitality the quirky oddball character this was the third in a series of films from Masaharu Segawa . Atsumi is supported by a top cast, the script is a standout with many memorable one-liners and quotes.
