Episode 55 - This is week 8 of our 10 week deep dive into the Japanese New Wave films of the 1960's. This week we watch and discuss Apart from Life (1970) directed by Kei Kumai. This one is a deep cut of Japanese cinema which covers more in depth the issue of discrimination in post war Japan, an issue that was not often addressed. Apart from Life tackles the issue head on by featuring once again Koreans, but also throws in atomic bomb survivors, catholics and the burakumin. What happens? Tune in to find out. And tune in next week as we cover another doozy: Eros + Massacre (1969) email us at [email protected]
