It combined fact and fiction to tell daring stories of professional grifters, leaving viewers with a feeling of nostalgia for the Showa era. Following that, another movie has been completed.

The film is made up of six episodes directed by six different directors who rose to the challenge, two of whom are Oshii himself.
