YesAsia Editorial Description

Relive the life of Kamachi!

This touching movie is based on the true life story of Yamada Kamachi. The extremely talented artist accidentally killed himself by an electric shock from his electric guitar at the tender age of 17 in 1997. Taniuchi Shinya from the popular group Lead portrays Kamachi, and other members of the band can also be seen in the movie.

Kamachi was totally in love with the fine arts especially poems, music and painting and his favorite phrase was "24 hours a day are not enough for me to do what I want to do". He started drawing pictures at the age of two and read his own poems to his mother when he was in the lower grades of elementary school. During his time in junior high he began listening to the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and Queen and writing his own songs. After falling in love with a girl he expressed his feeling for her via paintings, poems, and music. Kamachi is still being admired today for his intensive way of life that has deeply influenced Japan's younger generations.

山田かまちは「1日が24時間じゃ足りない」が口癖の中学生。詩や音楽、そして絵と、表現したいことが毎日あふれてくるのだ。「東大理三現役合格」「(ワールド)トップミュージシャンになる」という決意を胸に高校受験に挑んだが、失敗。小学校の美術教師に励まされ、浪人生活を始める。予備校では医者志望の隆と親しくなる。そして美少女・洋子に恋心を抱いたかまちは、彼女に思いを告げる…。
1977年8月10日、ギターによる感電死で17歳にしてこの世を去った少年、山田かまち。彼の残した膨大な作品や情熱的な生き様は、同世代のを中心に、死後大きな反響を呼んだ。本作はかまちの人生を「皆月」「Jam Films」の望月六郎監督が、かまちの生きた時代と20年後の現在をリンクさせるというユニークな手法を用い映画化。また、かまちの遺した実際の詩や絵を、BONNIE PINK、アナム&マキらの音楽にのせ多数紹介。アイドルグループ「Lead」が出演し、かまち役の谷内伸也を始め、人気ティーンアイドル大沢あかねらが、ピュアでナイーブな演技を見せている。かまちが実際に育った、群馬県・高崎を中心に綴られる感動の青春映画である。

Beautiful... Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
The show is really touching, and it really drives deep into the heart. There is a lot of meaning in each of the art that is portrayed, and delievers the message quite well. There is a bit of a problem with the camera works, but either than that, I find the movie quite splashing and heartwarming. It really makes me sad that this character was an actual character, because if Kamachi was still alive until now, I believe he would've been proud of this movie.
