As the protests at Sanrizuka transformed, Ogawa began looking for other subjects. He eventually moved to Yamagata, but considered other subjects like this one: the brutal Kotobukicho district of Yokohama. Only 250 meters on a side, it was home to 6,000 people living in 90 run-down flophouses. This was where day laborers live and die on the streets. Following the method they developed in Sanrizuka, Ogawa’s crew lived with the workers, tenderly filming the trials of their daily lives. It is a touching and heartrending film.

片长：共6部，总长16小时 [三里冢]是日本纪录片大师小川绅介，记录三里冢地区的农地被政府征收去兴建成田机场时，农民与政府抗争的经过。在日本，纪录片拍摄者基本上都站在反抗权力的立场，甚至纪录片本身就是一种反抗的形式。小川绅介导演生前最后的谈话是这样的：“我不承认‘国家’这个名词，‘国家’这个名词是可以不要的。” 1967年三里冢地区开始要兴建机场，当地村民为了保护自己的土地而与警察抗争，抵抗坚持了五年一直到1972年，这五年期间小川绅介带着剧组成员一直住在村里，他坚持“尽可能呆在现场”，通过时间的流变来展现示威斗争中真实动人的一面，当几年来一直抗争的农妇用铁链将自己和孩子锁在一起，面对警察面露坚毅之色时，它所表现出的震撼力量无法用语言描述，因此[三里冢]被称为“达到了古典武士戏剧的水平”。

The ostensible subject of this film is the growing, drying, peeling and packaging of persimmons in the tiny Japanese village of Kaminoyama. The inhabitants explain that it is the perfect combination of earth, wind and rain that makes their village’s persimmons superior to those grown anywhere else, including the village just a few miles away. The film’s larger subject, however, is the disappearance of Japan’s traditional culture, the end of a centuries-old way of life.

Shinsuke Ogawa documentary about the life of the farmers in Heta Village opposing their resettlement due to the construction of Narita Airport.

The movie compiles footage taken by Ogawa Production for a period of more than ten years after the collective moved to Magino village. Unique to this film are fictional reenactments of the history of the village in the sections titled "The Tale of Horikiri Goddess" and "The Origins of Itsutsudomoe Shrine". Ogawa combines all the techniques that were developed in his previous films to simultaneously express multiple layers of time—the temporality of rice growing and of human life, personal life histories, the history of the village, the time of the Gods, and new time created through theatrical reenactment—bring them into a unified whole. The faces of the Magino villagers appear in numerous roles transcending time and space—sometimes as individuals, sometimes as people who carry the history of the village in their memories, sometimes as storytellers reciting myths, and even as members of the crowd in the fictional sequences.

In 1968, Ogawa decided to form Ogawa Productions and locate it at the newly announced construction site of Narita International Airport in a district called Sanrizuka. Ogawa chose to locate his company in the most radical of the villages, Heta. Some farmers immediately sold their land; others vehemently protested and drew the support of social movements across the country. Together they clashed with riot police sent in to protect surveyors, who were plotting out the airport. Summer in Sanrizuka is a messy film – its chaos communicating the passions and actions on the ground.

It's the mid 60s. Tokyo needs a new airport. There isn't anywhere in Tokyo to put it, so the government decides on displacing some adjacent villages. The peasants of these villages are not having it. What results is a remarkable act of protest and civil disobedience.

This is Ogawa Productions’ first major film from their Yamagata period. They had already started photography on Magino Village -A Tale but they were drawn to this village deep in the high country above Magino when a particularly cold bout of weather threatened crops. Inevitably, their attention strayed from the impact of weather and geography on the harvest to the “life history” of Furuyashiki Village. On the one hand, Ogawa returns to his roots by playing with the conventions of the science film. At the same time, he discovers a local, peripheral space in which to think about the nation and the state of village Japan. From this “distant perspective” in the very heart of the Japanese mountains, Ogawa discovers a village still dealing with the trauma of global warfare and struggling for survival as their children flee for the cities.

学園側と対立してプレハブに立てこもる学生。彼らはあくまでも身内で妥協なく議論を展開する。あまりに長い議論の一部を捉えているので話の流れは見えて来ないが、学園側が折れるまで占拠を続ける気だ。ところが学園側は不気味に沈黙したまま時が流れる。兵糧攻めだ。若者達は時間を失うに従って現実に引き戻される。それぞれ生活の為にバイトをしなければならないし、養って貰っている者は親が心配する。 当時、体制への抵抗を掲げて抵抗する個人の側からドキュメントを撮っていた小川組だが、この作品を冷静に見ると、皮肉にも学生運動の幼稚さが感じられる。
