Frequently asked questions

What is United Red Army about? Toggle content

"United Red Army" is a gripping docudrama that explores the radicalization of Japanese universities in the 1960s and the rise of the far-left paramilitary group known as the United Red Army. Through three acts, the film delves into the group's formation, their brutal training camps in the Japanese Alps, and the eventual splitting up of the group, culminating in a hostage-taking and police standoff known as the Asama-Sansō incident. With a backdrop of archival footage and a hypnotic soundtrack by Jim O'Rourke, "United Red Army" offers a thought-provoking and unsettling look at the dangers of fanaticism and the consequences of blind obedience.
