Gunji Kawasaki's 1997 movie Juvenile Crime (Shônen no hanzai) was based on the same real-life murder case as Katsuya Matsumura's 1995 movie Concrete-Encased High School Girl Murder Case (Joshikôsei konkurîto-zume satsujin-jiken) and Hiromu Nakamura's 2004 movie Concrete (Konkurîto). It has been mistaken for Matsumura's movie by a number of bootleggers.

The screenplay for Juvenile Crime was written by Kawasaki. The movie starred (listed order corresponds to order on VHS and DVD covers) Nao Ôtake, Hajime Mao, Kazu Itsuki, Kôichi Imaizumi, Masayoshi Nogami (a.k.a. Seigi Nogami), Yumi Yoshiyuki, Reiko Aoki, Seiji Nakamitsu, and Rina Matsuoka. It was produced by Shungo Kaji.

Hot Entertainment K.K. (K.K. Hotto Entâteimento) released Juvenile Crime on VHS in Japan on July 25, 1997; Japan Entertainment Y.K. (Y.K. Japan Entâteimento) released it on DVD there on October 20, 2004.
