Winner of the members' choice draw
Life isn't easy for a group of high school kids
growing up in Japan's absurd pop/cyber culture, as they deal with
school bullies and parents from a different planet. These are
everyday rebels without a cause who seek sanctuary and even salvation
through pop star Lilly Chou Chou.

Some members' comments:
Extraordinary, a glimpse at what it's like to be young now.
Nicely filmed, but too long. What was the story?
I'm not sure I understood it at all.
At least it wasn't as bad as the Russian one but it was close!
Wish I'd stayed at home.
Did not like filming or story (was there one?)
Awful flashing photography, amateur.
Flashing is dangerous. No sense showing it.
Load of pointless, bloody rubbish. No doubt someone can claim deep meaning.
It dragged me down, soul destroying and tediously long. Youth
culture is changing all over the world but where were the parents and
family life?
Shocker; terrible; horrible; dreadful; evil; hideous; weird but not wonderful; boring etc.
