Takumi Kitamura Leads The Seven’s First Feature Film ‘Baka’s Identity’


Japanese production company The Seven is making its theatrical debut with crime thriller 'Baka's Identity' (A Fool's Identity).

Directed by Koto Nagata, a protégée of acclaimed filmmaker Shunji Iwai, the chase thriller explores Japan’s criminal underworld through the perspectives of three young men over three intense days. The story follows Takuya and Mamoru (Hayashi), two disadvantaged young men working in identity theft schemes who seek help from Kajitani (Ayano), their underworld mentor, when they try to escape their criminal lives. Company president Tatsuo Sugai noted the film “takes a different approach to the high-end productions that we have been known for,” but expressed confidence in its timely themes.
