The Matsukawa Incident: Seeing the Truth Through the Wall (1954)

A passenger train derailment occurred on
August 17, 1949. In the aftermath, it was
suspected that Communist sympathizers were
responsible and people involved in an ongoing labor dispute were rounded up and put
on trial. Starting from the premise that unjust verdicts were handed down in both the
initial trial and on appeal, this film sets out to investigate the truth.
