Description

DVD release of the hit Japanese film "Choshu Five" starring Ryuhei Matsuda and Susumu Terashima. The arrival of Commodore Perry on the Japanese coast has cast Japan into an anti-foreigner ferver, and restrictions grow further on the closed borders of Japan. But beneath the strong facade, the power of Japan's rulers is crumbling and foreign influence is bleeding into Japan. Amidst this backdrop five extremely talented young men from the Choshu Han secretly make plans to flee Japan--a crime punishable by death--for England to study the latest technology and culture abroad so that they can then bring it back to Japan and ensure Japan's future in the world. Limited edition "Chosyu edition" includes epsicial booklet with further explanation of "Choshu Five" and special DVD features.
Special Feature / Bonus Track: making-of featurette, and more

長州ファイブ chosyu edition [初回限定生産] / 邦画

松田龍平主演映画「長州ファイブ」のDVDリリース!! 攘夷の嵐が吹き荒れる幕末期に幕府の禁を破ってイギリスへ命がけの密航を果たし、後に近代日本の幕開けに大きな足跡を残した長州藩の5人の若者、『長州ファイブ』と呼ばれる、伊藤博文、井上馨、井上勝、遠藤謹助、山尾庸三の激動の運命を描く歴史ドラマ。監督は、『地雷を踏んだらサヨウナラ』『HAZAN』など実在の人物を力強く描き出し、そこに迸る生を表現することで知られている五十嵐匠。2006年東京国際映画祭「日本映画・ある視点」公式出品作品。2007年第40回ヒューストン国際映画祭 グランプリ受賞。――ペリー率いる黒船の来航以来、尊皇攘夷の気運が勢いを増す幕末の日本。そんな中、西欧に人材を派遣し見聞を広め学問や技術を習得することが必要と説く佐久間象山の言葉に深く心を動かされた長州藩の若者、志道聞多。見つかれば死罪という国禁を犯してまでもイギリスへ渡りたいという聞多の情熱は、藩主の毛利敬親にも聞き入れられ、藩は密航を黙認するのだった。こうして、志道聞多と彼の情熱に突き動かされた山尾庸三、野村弥吉、伊藤俊輔、遠藤謹助の5人は「吉田松陰」の教えを胸に、日本の未来のため、遥かなる異国の地、イギリスを目指して危険な航海に旅立つのだった。イギリスの最新技術や知識を日本に持ち帰るため、自らを“生きたる機械"にせんとしたファイブの運命とは・・・? 限定版"chosyu edition"には、「長州ファイブ」の理解が深まるスペシャル・ブックレット付き。
