"Strawberry White Paper"

Japanese: 《いちご白書》 - いちごはくしょ
"Strawberry White Paper"

...Furthermore, in the 1970s, the image of youth = failure reached its peak with director Tatsumi Kamishiro's "The Fall of Youth" (1974). In America, heroes of "rebellious youth" appeared after Marlon Brando in "The Brute" (1954) and James Dean in "Rebel Without a Cause" (1955), and the image of youth = rebellion strengthened. "Easy Rider" (1969), which has a hippie protagonist, and "Strawberry White Paper" (1970), which depicts a campus protest, came to be called "youth films" because of their "anti-establishment" qualities. In addition, we can also consider a definition of "youth films" that reaches the ultimate formula of life = film = youth, as symbolized by director Tai Kato's words "Film is youth" when he shot "Theater of Life: Youth, Love, and the Last Knight" (1972).
