Synopsis

The vocalist of a popular rock group, Bluff, is at odds with her teammates due to her disorganized behavior. When she fails to release any more new songs, her record label terminates her contract. Eiji returns to his hometown to escape everything he wants to forget, but the hospitality of his friends is short-lived and he soon finds himself in a difficult confrontation with his father. But an unexpected turn of events awaits him, and he makes a crucial decision. “Rock is life.” Eiji's line sums up the movie's theme. The movie dramatizes Eiji's life as a successful rock star, just like the intense and dramatic rock music. The opening with the explosive sound and close-up of Eiji is very impressive, and like the contrasting images of the big city of Tokyo and his hometown, the events of Eiji's life as a musician and as a member of a family are seamlessly integrated into the ironic life drama.
