About Birmingham Anime Film Festival: On-Gaku - Our Sound
When you’re a bored teenager looking for thrills, sometimes the only thing you can turn to is rock-n-roll. Having no skill, money or even a full set of drums, a feared trio of high school delinquents nevertheless decide they are destined for musical glory.
Animated almost entirely by director Kenji Iwaisawa (who worked independently on it for seven years), and featuring a lead performance by Japanese alt-rock legend Shintaro Sakamoto, On-Gaku brings its own sound and deadpan vision to the Hiroyuki Ohashi manga from which it was adapted.
