Narita Airport near Tokyo, once the scene of fierce battles between peasants who lost their land, sympathetic students and the police, is now the most security-conscious airport in the world. Filming and taking photographs is absolutely forbidden. Flagrantly ignoring the ban, Byron Black went through all the security checks between Tokyo Terminal Bus Station and his seat on board with his camera on and recording rolling as hand luggage. The camera and recorder end up on the luggage conveyor, are checked and returned to their owner. No problem. 'Please', says the customs official. 'A Please State', according to Byron Black. Byron is the last to board the plane in this anarchistic one-act comedy for gentleman and camera.
