Mai bakku pêji

In 1969, a young journalist named Masami Sawada joins a weekly magazine as a gonzo reporter, driven by an era-wide idealism that sparks his passion for storytelling. Two years later, he becomes embroiled in the world of radical activism through an interview with Umeyama, a charismatic figure whose plans to take action in April spark both curiosity and skepticism within Sawada. As Sawada delves deeper into the activist's life, he uncovers a complex web of truth and deception that challenges his own moral compass. With its thought-provoking themes and nuanced performances, "My Back Page" is a gripping drama that explores the darker side of idealism in 1960s Japan.
