Give Back Kama’s Rights! 2011 釜の住民票を返せ！ 2011 2011 Directed by Kim Im-man
In Kamagasaki, a neighborhood in Osaka’s Nishinari Ward, lies Japan’s largest flophouse, where many day laborers are listed as living. In one small five-story building, approximately 3,300 workers and homeless people have registered their addresses, as is necessary in Japan to obtain employment and voting rights. Arguing that they do not actually live there, city authorities have moved to eliminate their registrations. Furious, those affected and their supporters rise up. The camera captures the passion of their fight.
