Extrem! Harakiri, Bushido, Kamikaze. Zwischen Faszination und Fassungslosigkeit schwanken westliche Betrachter beim Blick auf die jahrtausendlange japani- sche Tradition des unbedingten Gehorsams und der Opferbereitschaft. Die Schmach der Kapitulation nach dem Abwurf zweier amerikanischer Atom- bomben, die Verdrängung der eigenen Kriegsverbrechen und der ökonomische Zusammenbruch stürzten Japan in eine tiefe moralische Krise. Die Film-Studios und Filmemacher der 40er und 50er Jahre reagierten mit humanistischen Meisterwerken wie „Ikiru“ (Akira Kurosawa, 1954) oder „Tokyo Story“ (Yasujiro Ozu, 1954), die die Werte der Gemeinschaft und der Familie priesen. Im selben Jahr brachte aber auch „Godzilla“ (Ishiro Honda, 1954) den atomaren Zerstörungs-Horror zurück auf die Leinwände. In den 60er Jahren befreien sich junge Regisseure von den tradierten Fesseln der Filmstudios und inszenieren ihre politisch ambitionierten Sozialdramen oder moralisch ambivalenten Genre-Knaller als freie Produktionen. Zwischen Avant-Garde und Exploitation entstehen gänzlich neue Genres und in ihrer Battle Royal Extremität befreiende Bilderwelten, auf die wir in der siebten Reihe des „Verbo- tenen Lichtspiels“ den Fokus legen.
