	'''''The Red Spectacles''''' is the first film entry in the ''Kerberos Saga'', an alternate history political thriller series by Mamoru Oshii (Director of ''[[Ghost in the Shell]]'' and ''[[Sky Crawlers, The\|The Sky Crawlers]]''). Set in the 1950's, The Kerberos Saga depicts a history where the United States chose not to intervene in either World War, Japan sided with the Allies, and Germany defeated and occupied Japan for nearly 10 years, leaving the country in a state of political turmoil.

	To cope with the increase in anti-government movements, the Japanese government founds the Special Armed Garrison, more commonly known as "Kerberos". The Kerberos squad consists of highly trained, heavily armed soldiers ~~armed utilized~~ special suits of armor known as "Protect Gear", and is tasked with quelling anti-government movements through lethal force. As the political scene shifts, the Japanese government orders the Kerberos squad to disband. They refuse to do so, resulting in a bloody confrontation between the Kerberos Units and the Tokyo Capital Police known as the "Kerberos Riot".

	''The Red Spectacles'' picks up immediately after the Kerberos Riot and follows senior detective Koichi Todome ([[Shigeru Chiba]]), a member of the Kerberos squad who manages to escape from Tokyo, only to return several years later for unknown reasons. The film is mostly known for its unusual narrative style. After Todome returns to Tokyo, the entire film switches from color to black-and-white, and every event is told through symbolic and comedic imagery, masking the film's true tone.

It also doesn't tell you that throughout this bizarre action sequence, Koichi is only wearing his ever-present sunglasses (at night).]]
