  • Being part of a documentary production in tōkyō

  • Camera, B-Rolls
  • We are still in Japan while posting this, so more updates will follow

    • The red flower

    It all comes down to one question: How does a single idea become a movement? We will cover topics such as feminism in Japan, gender equality, emancipation, gender norms, and societal pressures on men and women.

    The goal

    We decided to produce a feature-length documentary to draw attention to these issues in the best way possible and to provide up-close insights into the lives of Minori Kitahara und Shu Matsuo Post.

    Team Lead

    Film production is teamwork. Only when all team members work together the project develops into the right direction. Our team consists of director Sandra Beuck, producer Nico Gerspacher and co-producer Tobias Lang. Everyone has their own area of expertise, yet everything flows together in the end - driven by a common vision.
