In a school dormitory, mistrust spreads amongst some students. Why doesn't Tachibana have to learn and still keeps improving his grades? The other students' curiosity leads them to search his room, where their suspicions seem to be confirmed. NO MISBEHAVIOR IN THE DORM won the PIA Film Festival Grand Prix in 1994. Later films like THE PRINCESS BLADE (2001 / NC '02) and GANTZ (2011 / NC '11) made Shinsuke SATO one of the most successful Japanese blockbuster directors.
