It has been revealed that "Drama W Koki Mitani' Oi, Dazai '", which was originally written and directed by Koki Mitani and aired on WOWOW on June 29th, will be released nationwide on July 11th as " Koki Mitani' Oi, Dazai' Movie Version". There will also be a special video "Another Ending" exclusive to the movie version.
The drama is the first new work in 12 years in the "One-scene, One-shot Drama" series, which Mitani himself directed and based on his original script. Komuro Kensaku (Kei Tanaka) is an ordinary office worker who admires Dazai Osamu. On the way home from a wedding reception he attended with his wife Miyoko (Miyazawa), he accidentally stumbles onto the beach where Dazai attempted suicide. Excited to be in a place associated with Dazai, Kensaku ventures into a dark cave despite being stopped. Appearing at the end of the tunnel are Dazai Osamu (Matsuyama Kenichi) and his girlfriend Tomiko (Koike). Has Kensaku traveled back in time to the era Dazai lived in?
The feature of the theatrical version is that you can see a precious special video "Another Ending" that can not be seen in the WOWOW broadcast version. In addition, the audio commentary by Mitani, Tanaka, Koike, and Miyazawa will be screened at all screenings at cinemas nationwide from the release date.
