Atarashî Kamisama plot

The lead singer of a band gets a camera from the director to film herself privately. With this, the director wants to get a picture of the current young generation of Japan. You can follow her development as a human being of flesh and blood in a society that almost chokes on peace and stability, and how she has to find her own place in this. The different points of view between the director and the subject are also discussed, because the director himself is also an active 'part' of the documentary.
