Sho o suteyo MacHi e deyou (Throw Away Your Books, Rally in the Streets) screening

2017-Dec-13 @ 19:30 - 21:47

The Dryden will screen Sho o suteyo MacHi e deyou (Throw Away Your Books, Rally in the Streets, Shûji Terayama, Japan 1971, 137 min., 35mm, Japanese w/ subtitles) as part of the Terayama series.

Shûji Terayama's debut feature Throw Away Your Books, Rally in the Streets, an adaptation of his eponymous novel and play, is a playful, energetic, psychedelic, visually hypnotic critique of contemporary Japanese society's descent into ruthless materialism. The story focuses on a teenager in hopeless search of identity within a highly dysfunctional family and a fractured world that both threaten to devour the boy—demanding everything and not really caring at all. A masterpiece of subversive cinema.
