Lost Youth is a film that exposes the darker side of Tokyo. It shows the stories of youth in Japan and is based on true events. Unlike how Japanese cultures are famously exhibited to the world, the film displays a perspective rarely reported by the Japanese media due to political censorship. Some of its contents are disturbing and I expect it may appear controversial, but this is the reality and we should not hide from it. ——————————- Production: Cekai & Caviar @caviar.tv Distributor: Boiler Room @boilerroomtv Director / Writer:Taichi Kimura Producer: Taro Mikami @taro_mik , Takumi Kidokoro & Ore Okonedo Comminssioner: Joe Alexander @joe_alexander Co - writer: Ryosuke Asano @gorinumakid DOP: Rina Yang @the_rinayang Assistant Director:Ryosuke Asano Focus puller:Kate Molins @kate__mo__ Steadicam Oparator:Koji Naoi @kojinaoi Gaffer:Hiroyuki Ota Sparks:Junpei Miyamoto, Moe Koyama, Buch @bigwavedude Best Boy:Takahiro Morooka, Naoki Sato Sound recordist:Ryoma Ochiai Costume: Io Takemura @iotakemura & Riku Oshima @rxixkxux Mask Design:Shunsuke Meguro @shun.hairhead Sound Designer:Chaki Zulu @yentowntokyo , Father & Thom Yardley @yardleythomas Audio Mixier:Nick Olsouzidis Editor:Wataru Nagahata Unit Photographer:Tammy @tammyinbali Runner: Tomohiro YagI & Kim @yasuhiro_kim Telecine - Smoke & mirrors @smokeandmirrorsglobal Rental house - Feral equipment @feralequipment ———————— @megumu_offi @yentowntokyo @killatokyo @anamdada @akira_koieyama @hahahanacooo
