Tokyo Rhapsody
"Tokyo Rhapsody" consists of 11 short films all centered around the music genre known as "Kayokyoku".

Although the term survives, it has a strong connotation with a simpler, pre-"Economic Bubble" era when Japanese people shared a common identity in the reconstruction of their nation.
