Moga is a visually stunning anthology biopic miniseries that explores the vibrant lives of multiple modern girls navigating the complexities of a rapidly changing world. Each episode focuses on a different woman—from the rebellious shopgirl flaunting bobbed hair and flapper dresses to the intellectual breaking free from the confines of family expectations. As they challenge the role of women in society, they also confront their inner turmoil, aspirations, and the cultural clash between traditional Japanese values and the intoxicating allure of the West. Through personal struggles, love, loss, and empowerment, Moga brings to life the untold stories of these trailblazers, who were not just fashion icons but powerful symbols of change in post-war Japan. Their journey mirrors the broader transformation of Japanese society—a country torn between past and future, old and new, tradition and progress.
