Director Seijun Suzuki, a unique and brilliant talent who constantly breaks the conventions of cinema with his unique visual sense, has selected 12 works from his vast collection of films from his Nikkatsu era, which are housed in two BOX sets. The first installment, titled "Works That Got Him in Trouble with Nikkatsu," mainly features works that were not understood by the company due to their avant-garde visual expression, but were later re-evaluated by film fans.
