Jam: The Drama

2021 · 1 season

A strange, offbeat Japanese drama that drifts between deadpan comedy and quiet unease, keeping you unsure where it's heading.

Overview: Hiroshi, Takeru, and Tetsuo all live in the same city. Hiroshi is an unpopular idol singer and he feels a void in his life. He is placed under confinement by his fan Masako. Takeru believes that a girl returns to consciousness. Tetsuo decides to take revenge on a yakuza who sent him to prison.
How it feels: Dark, absurd, melancholic and tense. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Obsession, isolation, revenge, identity
Content: Mild violence, gore, sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
