Kamikaze Taxi (KAMIKAZE TAXI)

I am now in Kita Ward, Tokyo at an apartment house called "Family House."

People of Japanese origin, from Brazil and Peru...

...constitute a small community here.

Approximately 150,000 such people are now working in Japan.

But, with the recent recession, decent jobs are hard to find.

I was born in the north of Ibaragi Prefecture.

When 5 years old my family and I immigrate to Brazil.

And in 1989, in order to find work, I return to Japan.

Since childhood...

How do I say? I admire Japan.

I think Japan as my homeland.

I leave Japan when I am child. So I feel I am Brazilian.

That is also part of me.

People from South America have these problems.

We try to get an apartment, but they don't want to rent to us.

So, some of us must live in company dorms.

We have trouble at work, too.

They don't like Brazilians very much.

They say we are thieves.

They say we are stupid.

They really do.

Man from Peru coming work in Japan...

...in accident...

...his foot is crushed.

Company says...

"We take care of you, so you must work with no pay for just over one year."

That's not right.

I arrived this Monday.

It's not even a week yet.

So I don't know anything about Japan.

I came with my daughter. She wanted to come.

What I always say is "I'm same as you Japanese".

My status here is same as you Japanese.

My name, too. It's a Japanese name.

Like our fathers and grandfathers who were chased out of Japan...

They emigrated to South America to find work.

Life was hard for them.

My father went to fight in war. He fight in Philippines.

After war, in Japan, he could not find any good job.

And for us he became immigrant.

He have that feeling.

That's why I feel appreciation for him.

My mother in Japan in 1960s when it is Beatles age...

She say nobody in Japan have long hair like this!

I say, Mother, you know nothing.

Nothing.

Japan is now different.

Japan becoming like America.

She say she can't believe it.

Japanese immigrant feel same as old-time Japanese.

They retain these ideas. So many like that.

This film was shot in April-May, 1994.

A time when Japanese politics became chaotic.

Do you have any objections to the report?

Even if it was a personal transaction, what's wrong with that?

Japan has 150,000 foreign laborers of Japanese origin...

...90,000 Yakuza gangsters...

...and politicians who distort historical facts.

Rare as it may be, the paths of these three groups do sometimes cross.

KAMIKAZE TAXI

Beautiful day, but where is he?

What the fuck is this?

We're frying our balls here!

Are you sure?

Where are they now?

Tatsuo, where are we?

15th hole.

We're at the 15th tee.

Huh?

Okay. We'll be there.

They're on the 6th hole.

Let's go.

Gimme 15 seconds.

You really enjoy pissing, don't you?

Huh?

Helluva cock, that is.

Good color, shiny, too.

Basted in super-pussy juice?

Bit of a dog-leg to the right.

Yeah, good for slicing.

Oh no, not again!

When you're my caddy, I always hit wild.

Good morning, Senator Domon.

Don't need any women today.

I'm here about my replacement.

Really?

Forget about the ball. I'll hit another one.

Can you see the Prime Minister down there?

Put my ball near him.

The cart.

Move the cart.

Yes, sir.

I told you. No women today.

I'll introduce my replacement.

Yes. You mentioned that.

I have been promoted in the Family, sir.

My subordinate, Tatsuo Minami, will procure for you from now on.

All right. He's young and handsome enough.

Probably has a better girls than you.

He certainly does, sir.

That's why the Don chose him to replace me.

Speak.

lam Tatsuo Minami.

At your service, sir.

Sounds Korean, I hope you're a full-blood Japanese.

Sir?

Learn what my tastes are.

He has been told, sir.

Ready, sir.

Very good.

Let's go.

Good, huh?

Say the routine.

I'll pull it out.

No, don't!

I'll kill you, if you do.

Please, sir...

...don't pull it out.

Please, sir.

Say it.

Please...

Where's the "sir?"

Sir.

Senator Domon.

Senator Do-morn.

No, it's Domon.

Senator Domon.

Right here.

These trees are growing too much.

You have to make sure they go well with the other trees.

That's your job.

I'm sorry sir. I will call...

I'm not finished yet.

This part too.

Here.

This part is dirty. It is impolite for my guests.

Renko.

You should take a shower.

Not yet.

I'm gonna make an appointment.

What?

What are you talking about?

I know. It's the one that burns your skin, isn't it?

No, it's an appointment with Domon.

Okay.

Two girls, OK?

But he likes bondage sex...

Bring someone who is tough.

It's pretty dangerous, you know?

Think how old he is!

It's like child's play.

It won't hurt. It's gonna make you feel itchy.

He is so dark.

That's because he is a politician.

You should cheer him up with your pussy...

...and tum him into a cool pervert.

I wonder why.

I get all wet just looking at you.

Juicy wet?

Very, very wet.

Is your cunt all slippery?

Slippery cunt and wet cock.

Sell your ass the right way.

Thinking about where you'd be by next year...

Made my mind go blank.

Tomorrow is another day...

Look, I'm already 26.

I can't do this forever.

That's why...

I'll introduce you to big-shots.

Hook a rich guy ready to croak.

What if I can't?

Go back to your hometown and marry a landowner's son.

Why a landowner's son?

Okay, maybe a Shinto priest.

That'd be a big laugh, wouldn't it?

Can't I stay with you?

What?

You mean get married?

No, not that.

I'll be like that old bag in "Rebecca."

I'll be mean to your wife.

Sounds like fun.

Let's be partners.

Yeah, sure.

How do you like her?

What's your name?

Tama.

Sounds like a cat.

I got it from a cat.

It's a bit big, but it's cool.

She ain't poxed?

Guaranteed.

All my recruits have had check-ups.

She fucks foreigners.

What's wrong with that?

He'd be pissed if he found out.

How come?

You know, Domon's old-fashioned.

I don't get it.
