One of the world's great cinemas has remained largely unexplored in Western books. What emerges from this one is in fact the first inside view of Japanese films, directors, and artists published in English. Among the great directors whose views are presented here are Kon Ichikawa, Masaki Koayashi, and the great master, Akira Kurosawa. Also included, Hiroshi Teshigahara, Nagisa Oshima, Susumu Hani, Shuji Terayama, and others.
