Nobutaka
YAMAOKA
Film Director and Producer. ‘PICKLED PUNK’ which is his full
length first film produced by 16-mm, was won the special
jury prize at The Pia Film Festival, then it was invited
showing at a lot of film festivals including Berlin International
Film Festival. His filmmaking style to produce a film all
alone like production, director, audio, art and edit carves
out all his own picture niche as an isolated creation beyond
existing filmmaking methodology. Although he is far from
prolific, his new work is always paid attention, and has
been still welcomed from overseas film festivals as an exceptional
person of underground. In the latest films, Fix, landed on
Japan through the world premium at Pusan International Film
Festival, and Sorano, the documentary film analyzed Tori,
the first film directed by Tadanobu Asano in detail. His
first new visual work in 3 years, Planet Mega-dolce, serialized
in an internet, has got a lot of attention recently.
