Anarchist from Colony

After the devastating Great Kanto earthquake in 1923, an absurd rumor was spread that Koreans were exploiting the damages from the disaster, committing robberies and poisoning wells. Fueled by the fear of Korean independence movement, anti-Korean sentiment is fired up, resulting in mass murders by vigilante groups and police. As an attempt to re-direct attention from the massacres, the Japanese government arrests random Koreans, among them, Park Yeol, a young anarchist.
