In the late 1960s, student protest movements reached a zenith of activity in Japan. A number of remarkable books were published to record these events.
To avoid any possibility of the photographs being used as incriminating evidence none of them are credited, the publisher is an anonymous committee, and no identifiable faces are visible throughout the book. The students were for the most part amateurs and did not have access to the appropriate equipment or film. As a consequence the images are mostly out of focus and grainy, thereby achieving the visual effect deliberately sought by Takuma Nakahira, Daido Moriyama, and others close to the are-bure-boke (grainy, blurry, out-of-focus) photography of the Provoke movement.
