The tentative title called reversal (1969)

The oldest surviving work by Hoshino. A short drama about three young men and one girl. Rather than remaining confined to the typical image of youth often found in student films, it is filled throughout with experimental attempts, revealing the early seeds of ideas that would later connect to Hoshino’s subsequent works. A playful and pop-infused piece that strongly evokes its era.
