BECK
Directed by Yukihiko Tsutsumi
Produced by Shochiku, Nippon Television Network Corporation
A coming-of-age rock band story that balances the warmth of found friendship and creative passion with the darker complications of past trauma and rising stakes.
Yukio is your average high school student who spends his days going to class and avoiding bullies. That is until he meets Ryusuke, a guitar prodigy. Together with Taira, Chiba, and Saku they form the rock band BECK. As their popularity increases so does the danger as Ryusuke's past catches up with him.
