The "idol culture," primarily centered around girl groups and pop music, is now permeating every aspect of Japanese society. "Tokyo Idol," presented in a documentary format, delves into the core of this cultural phenomenon, exploring the impact of the idol culture trend on society. The film showcases the journey to fame of a genuine "Tokyo idol." Her "brothers" are a group of middle-aged men who have devoted their lives to following young female idols, both online and in real life. They have given up their jobs and were once considered societal outcasts, but fully immersed in idol culture, they have become mainstream in the online world as the culture expands. Director Kyoko Miyake reveals the role of gender power within the Japanese pop music industry through the provocative attire of the young idols.
