Battle Royale II: Requiem

Battle Royale II: Requiem (Japanese: バトル・ロワイアルII 鎮魂歌, Hepburn: Batoru Rowaiaru Tsū Rekuiemu) is a 2003 Japanese dystopian action film directed by Kinji Fukasaku and Kenta Fukasaku, who co-wrote the screenplay with Norio Kida. It is the sequel to the 2000 film Battle Royale, which in turn was based on the 1999 novel of the same name by Koushun Takami. Unlike the first film, Requiem is an original story. It is set three years after the events of the previous film and follows Shuya Nanahara, who has now become an international terrorist intending to bring down the Japanese totalitarian government. As a result, another class of ninth graders is kidnapped and sent to eliminate Nanahara within a limited time period of 72 hours.
