English Summary:
Young Thugs: Nostalgia (岸和田少年愚連隊・望郷, Kishiwada Shōnen Gurentai: Bōkyō) is a 1998 Japanese film directed by Takashi Miike. It is based on the autobiographical novel Kishiwada shōnen gurentai: Bōkyō written by Riichi Nakaba. It is the prequel to the 1997 film Young Thugs: Innocent Blood.
Riichi's life begins with his father Toshi winning money betting on the gender of his child, then naming him after a move in the game of Japanese Mahjong. When Riichi wins a fight, his family gets him drunk and the next day he vomits into his recorder during class. His teacher Miss Itō visits his home and witnesses his father Toshi abusing his mother. Toshi begins sleeping with the stripper Akemi.
Riichi's friend Kotetsu's grandmother searches in vain for her paints in the river and is eventually put in a care home. Riichi and Gasu accompany Kotetsu as he runs away from home in Osaka in an attempt to reach his brother's place in Shikoku. They quickly run out of money and are forced to return home.
The first prize of the school competition is paints and Riichi resolves to win them for Kotetsu's grandmother. They steal supplies and build a life-size replica of the Apollo Lunar Module but Riichi's rival Sada and his gang destroy it. Riichi and Kotetsu but up the other gang and force them to rebuild the replica. It wins first prize and they attempt to give the paints to Kotetsu's grandmother but find her dead at the spot by the river where she was searching.
