Have any of you seen it? Its about the Japanese Red Army (Japanese RAF) and its later derranged split, The United Red Army (comparable to the Black September Brigades) It gives alot of historical background on the Japanese student movement . What are your thoughts?

I haven't seen the movie, but Wakamatsu Koji is a great film maker. He made a documentary about the Seki Gun (JRA) in 1971 called The Red Army/PFLP: Declaration of World War. As a result of his association with the JRA he was denied a visa to enter the USA in 1998 to attend a film festival where his movies were being shown.

Based on other Wakamatsu movies I've seen this one is worth seeking out. If any interested parties locate a copy please let us know.
