Computer Files, Websites
Loosely inspired by Jake Adelstein’s non-fiction first-hand account, the crime drama series TOKYO VICE follows the young American journalist’s (played by Ansel Elgort) rapid descent into Tokyo’s neon-soaked underbelly in the late ‘90s. Hired as prestigious newspaper Meicho Shimbun’s first American crime reporter, Adelstein soon finds himself covering seemingly unrelated cases – but quickly grows suspicious that more nefarious forces are at play. After embedding himself into the Tokyo Metro PD, alongside Detective Hiroto Katagiri (Ken Watanabe), Adelstein is thrust into a seedy, fast-paced world of corruption, crime, and deception, where nothing and no one are what they seem.
