Synopsis

After shocking the Japanese establishment with The Emperor’s Naked Army Marches On and Goodbye CP, Hara focuses on controversial writer Mitsuharu Inoue in this forceful documentary. Originally intending to spend years on the project, Hara soon realized that Inoue was dying from cancer and adjusted his plan. A Dedicated Life is not only a tribute to a courageous man, but it also reveals Hara’s own dedication to outsiders, mavericks, and nonconformists who rebel against the limits of normal society.
