Synopsis:

Explore Gen Takahashi's epic 3-hour exposé on the Japanese law enforcement. Takeda is an honest police officer, father and husband, but after he's promoted to detective he quickly becomes embroiled in dirty back room dealings, blackmail, and corruption that goes right to the top of the force. Meanwhile, investigator Kusama must decide whether he should shake the foundations of Japanese law enforcement with the information that has come into his possession about the police. Confessions Of A Dog won critical praise from around the globe at festival screenings.

Confessions of a Dog follows a simple, honest beat cop as he wins the confidence of the Head of the Criminal Investigative Department and works his way up, finding out as he does how corrupted the system is. Too committed to his job to reject an order, Takeda (Shun Sugata) soon sees himself embroiled in the daily transgressions of the force, from seedy backroom dealings to blackmail and brutal violence, which not only jeopardise his life but also cause him to become increasingly detached from his wife and daughter.
