The Golden Country & A Forty-Year-Old Man

This collection features two full-cast dramatisations of Shusaku Endo's acclaimed novels, "The Golden Country" and "A Forty Year Old Man." "The Golden Country" explores the persecution of Japanese Christians in the 17th century and the cultural conflicts faced by Jesuit superiors, while "A Forty Year Old Man" follows the story of Suguro, a Catholic man confronting critical health and personal challenges. Both performances delve into complex themes rooted in faith, identity, and cultural tension.
