Night and Fog in Japan (日本の夜と霧, Nihon no Yoru to Kiri) is a 1960 Japanese drama film directed by Nagisa Ōshima. It deals with the contemporary Zengakuren opposition but also evokes the 1950 protests against the Anpo treaty; this political content is related to the particular approach of memory and interpersonal dynamics of social movements in the film.
