Iron Man The Cinema of Shinya Tsukamoto

Shinya Tsukamoto has become one of the most widely praised filmmakers in Japan today. 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.
