Edgy, intense and overwhelming, Tsukamoto's films are nightmarish visions of a world in which man's greatest enemy is his own environment of cold concrete and twisted technology. Illustrated with hundreds of stills, behind-the-scenes pictures and rare photographs from the director's own collection, Iron Man reveals the mind, methods and madness of Japan's most unique and influential filmmaker.
