Documentary

A mini-documentary about avant-garde Japanese musician Kazuki Tomokawa. Tomokawa is a prolific Japanese musician, active in the Japanese music scene since the early 1970s. He is often described as a "screaming philosopher" due to his idiosyncratic singing style. His music has been used in the films of cult directors Takashi Miike and Koji Wakamatsu, and he also appears in person in Miike's Izo (2004).
