Cruel Story of Youth (AKA Naked Youth, Seishun Zankoku Monogatari, and 青春残酷物語) is a 1960 film from Nagisa Oshima at the forefront of the Japanese New Wave cinema movement. The film tells the tale of two youths who fall in love -- or lust, at least -- against the backdrop of the ANPO protests.
We're joined by Miguel Rodriguez of the Horrible Imaginings film festival to discuss this groundbreaking film.
