The End of the Special Time We Were Allowed
2013, Japanese. Directed by Shingo Ota.
At the age of 17, Sōta Masuda won the Rock Newcomer Award, and his future looked bright. As his high school friend, the director began filming a documentary about him. However, Sōta, who was obsessed with pursuing his rock 'n' roll dream, seemed cursed with unfulfilled aspirations. He lived off his parents for nearly a decade before ultimately taking his own life. The few words left in his suicide note were a plea to the director to complete the documentary.
