People say that childhood experiences have an impact on the choices you make in life, and when your mother is caught having an affair, then kills herself and her lover with dynamite, it can be safely assumed that it will leave a lasting impression that will trickle into all aspects of your life. Dynamite Graffiti is a biopic about the legendary erotic magazine editor Akira Suei. It follows Suei (Tasuku Emoto) through his humble beginnings as a graphic design student, to his constant struggles against censorship in 70’s and 80’s Japan.
