Synopsis by Jonathan Crow
In this third installment of Ogawa Shinsuke's Narita series about the construction of the Tokyo International Airport in spite of community protests, construction on the second phase of the airport continues in spite of ongoing protests. Farmers from eight villages gather in three locations to wage a bitter struggle against riot police. The farmers had planned to protest for a few weeks, but by the third day, the police burst through the farmers' enclosure while they desperately defend themselves with feces bombs and sit-ins.
