Film Kani Kosen Diangakat Dari Novel Kobayashi Takiji









Aboard the Japanese crab ship 'Kanikosen' equipped with a cannery facility, workers are forced to labor under pitiful conditions at minimum wages. Some even die of cruel labor and malnutrition. And to top it off, the factory superintendent Asakawa (Hidetoshi Nishijima) is the most brutal sort who does not treat the workers as human beings.Shinjo (Ryuhei Matsuda), one of the workers, persuades the others that they should wish to become rich in their next life as there is no future for them in the present. So all of them try to commit suicides, which ends up in a comedy of errors. SHINJO then escapes the Kanikosen and is rescued by a Soviet vessel. He is astonished by the new social system on the vessel that is so much different from the one he left behind. In realization, Shinjo returns to the ship to save the others.

Disertasi : Rethinking Japanese proletarian literature.
Heather Bowen-Struyk   2001




"Takiji Memorial: February 20, 2009" is a three-part documentary tribute to Kobayashi Takiji (1903-1933) produced by Heather Bowen-Struyk. This account is based on a trip to Otaru, Japan with Takiji-specialist Norma Field to commemorate the life, death and legacy of the young proletarian author-activist who was brutally murdered while being interrogated by the Special Higher Police on Februrary 20, 1933. In 2008, Takiji's nearly 80 year old novella "The Factory Ship" (Kani kosen) became a best-seller (aka the "boom"), pushing Takiji and the legacy of his work back into the media mainstream. Part One is "Takiji's Life in Otaru;" Part Two is "Takiji's Gravesite Ceremony;" and Part Three is "The Meaning of the Boom."
