This is an extremely unique form of documentary. For the duration of 72 hours, a single location or group of people is targeted. The footage is filtered and condensed into a 29-minute broadcast. There are no preconceived scripts or artificially created stories. The purpose is to remain completely true to reality. The subjects chosen are social phenomena unique to present-day Japan. These include manga cafes, corner convenience stores selling such specialty items as Christmas cakes, people working in 3.3 square-meters offices, and foreign backpackers in Tokyo. You'll be absorbed and amused by these seemingly unusual events that occur commonplace in everyday life in Japan.
