About this film

Originally $450, now $350 Since its defeat in WWII, Japan leapt forward to become a world economic power at lightning speed, and underwent an unprecedented economic boom in the mid-1980's, known as the "bubble economy." However, after the bursting of this bubble, the Japanese financial system has continued to slowdown. This series sheds light from an economic angle on how the Japanese people have lived during the 70 years since World War II.
