Event Description : 'Don The Incredible Dog' Japanese film screening.
An elementary school girl, KEIKO, found a pup while she and her family were hiking. He was
named, DON MATSUGORO, and grew up as a member of the family.
Three years later, KEIKO enters secondary school. Her father, KIYOSHI, is an unpopular
novelist and also a planner of a TV gossip program for housewives. The producer of the program, NOYAMA, often visits him to press him for new plans. Watching this scene, DON MATSUGORO gets very irritated and starts speaking using a word processor. It was a violation to the dogs' principles.
NOYAMA discovers the fact and makes KEIKO and DON MATSUGORO take part in the TV program. DON MATSUGORO suddenly rises to stardom. KEIKO's mother, HISAKO, volunteers to be his manager, and makes a contract with TV stations, organizes "autograph day," and makes DON MATSUGORO appear in CM films. His life as a celebrity becomes very busy.
The head of the Filing Department of the Cabinet, TSUCHIYA, while watching DON MATSUGORO's activities, decided he would use dogs for political purpose. He had found research done by Dr. FUKUYAMA, that dogs understand human languages.
One day, DON HATSUGORO and KEIKO were called a fake from a critic, WADA, while they were appearing on TV. Angry, DON MATSUGORO discloses the fact that all dogs understand human languages. Horrified by this comment, people begin to desert their dogs. DON MATSUGORO's girlfriend, OGIN, was also thrown away because she was there when her owner, OKAZAKI, a politician, was receiving a bribe. :
DON MATSUGORO is brought to dog trial for the violation of rules. With her ability to
understand the dogs' languages, KEIKO speaks for MATSUGORO. OKAZAKI finds out KEIKO's special talent and kidnaps her. DON MATSUGORO chases OKAZAKI. KEIKO's younger brother, KOICHI, and OGIN follow him in a balloon. KEIKO is confined in a house, and DON MATSUGORO is also captured. Then many of DON MATSUGORO's dog friends jump into the house, breaking the window. Surrounded by so many dogs, OKAZAKI surrenders and the police take him away.
Peace is returned, and KEIKO and KOICHI take DON HATSUGORO for a walk. However, the
tranquility is short, lived for TSUCHIYA's men come to shoot DON MATSUGORO. DON MATSUGORO, thinking KEIKO and KOICHI are in danger, runs toward him. DON MATSUGORO disappears with the sound of gun shot.
