Tanaka-San Will Not Do Callisthenics
“Every workday morning for more than 25 years Tanaka Tetsuro has protested outside the gate of the corporation that sacked him.”
Believing he was sacked unjustly from his job as an engineer in a big Japanese corporation, Tanaka Tetsuro has protested outside the company gate every morning for 25 years. Is he an obsessive? Why does he do this? After meeting him on the Internet the filmmakers travel to Japan in time for the 25th anniversary of his protest. They discover that in a world that places a premium on conformity, Tanaka-san has found a way to become himself.
