!!!!KUICHISAN by Maiko Endo • Screening at METROGRAPH • FEB 12th & 13th, 5:15PM • SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY ✨ "Endo, formerly a vocalist for the band Battles is both the director and composer of her lyric, sui generis debut feature, an enticingly dense, constantly alive Okinawa-set imagist docufiction. Moving between past and present, black and white and color, it follows a wondering 10 year old boy, a wandering American traveler, and the subjects or their wandering, bewildered attention: BMX bikers, traditional dancers, street singers, strobing nightclubs, and much else besides. An electric portrait it place, gorgeously lensed by DP Sean Price Williams, and one of the treasures or 2010's independent cinema."- @metrograph Presented w a virtual Q&A w/Maiko Endo w With Raizo Ishihara, Chizuru Lee, Eléonore Hendricks (so proud to be part of this movie) Produced by Maiko Endo & Jessica Oreck Cinematography by Sean Price Williams Costume Design by Bobbi Salvör Menuez Sound Alex Rossing Selected by Daniel Schmidt
