It tells the story of seven students in an underperforming high school filled with delinquents as they join different gangs and tries to become the leaders of the pack.
From start to finish, Blue Spring takes place in an all-boys school full of troublemakers. It portrays friendship that turns into rivalry and the mental breakdown of students. Based on a manga by Taiyo Matsumoto, who also created Tekkonkinkreet, and the rough style is present all over the film. For being a relatively short film (83 min), Blue Spring packs quite a punch and is a solid portrayal of Japanese school culture taken to the extreme. Keep an eye out for the brilliant fast motion scene on the rooftop, it's cool as hell.
