What Focus Is About

A television crew is after a story. The reporter is called Iwai. His assistant and cameraman are with him. The person they are filming is Kanemura. Kanemura is quiet and keeps to himself. What interests him is electronic eavesdropping. The crew interviews him. Then they come across a conversation. The conversation is about a gun. The reporter sees an opportunity in it. He pushes Kanemura into chasing the lead. Things get out of hand. A small argument leads somewhere else entirely. The whole film is seen through the crew’s camera. Even the test shots and the battery running out are in it. It opened on 12 October 1996. Tadanobu Asano appears in the seventy two minute film, a Japanese production Satoshi Isaka finished in 1996.
