Vulnerable Histories (A Road Movie) Trailers

As racist sentiment and discrimination continue to pull Japanese society apart, artist Koki Tanaka stages a series of conversations between Christian, a half-Swiss, half-Japanese-American man and Woohi, a Japan-born third-generation Korean (zainichi) woman living in Japan. The two young people discuss the disconcerting rise and increased presence of hate speech in the world, investigating not only the cold minutiae of law to reveal the lack of legal repercussions against the agitators, but also the devastating emotional consequences for those who are targeted.

Reviews
Bereamic Awesome Movie
pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.
Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
