BANALITY ATTACK Preview

 

Here is a sneak preview of the upcoming documentary directed by Jeff Mizushima, Banality Attack, starring Les Sewing Sisters (Lun*na Menoh + Saori Mitome) with the added presence of Tosh Berman.

Les Sewing Sisters embark on a uniquely intimate tour across Japan, performing in the closet spaces of private homes. Narrated through Tosh’s observations, the film follows the journey from one household to another, as he serves as MC, interviewer, roadie, and occasional source of anxiety. Along the way, we meet the generous homeowners (and their closets) who make each show possible.

What could possibly go wrong?

"Who Is Lun*na Menoh?" Best Documentary Award f rom CAAMFEST 2021

 

Being meta can be cliche nowadays. As boundaries of fact and fiction become more blurred in the Documentary Renaissance that we are currently living in, this film tests said boundaries, veering in left turns that may seem disingenuous, but in the end, is both a commentary and love letter to an artist who navigates and challenges the absurdity of the modern art scene, and always on her own terms. The jury is honored to announce the documentary award to WHO IS LUN*NA MENOH? - Masashi Niwano, CAAMFEST and Exhibitions Director.

Introducing "The Sparks Brothers"

 

A remarkable documentary by Edgar Wright on my favorite group, Sparks.  I'll write a longer appreciation/thoughts on the film shortly.  Still, I want to recommend people to see this excellent work. I'm in it!  Beyond that, it's still super good.  More later!
