Tokyo Confidential - Short Film

Tokyo Confidential is a short documentary-like film on the more quirky aspects of Japanese modern culture. I watched it at the Substation in Dec 2005 during the Panasonic-MDA Digital Film Fiesta 2005. The film itself has been uploaded to YouTube (where else?) by the director/producer/cameraman himself, Anthony Koithra, so there shouldn’t be any issues with copyright and IP stuff.

Anyway, the film is 13:05 minutes long and for those who are only interested in the highlights of this film, check out this part on Japanese vehicle modding scene from 2 mins to 4mins. The modifications they do to their vans have to be seen to be believed ;)


What Batman would probably drive in Japan

9:30 mins into the film, you can get a glimpse of really fresh sushi prepared by a very entertaining and skilful sushi chef at Sushizanmai Restaurant in the Tokyo’s Tsukijishijo District.


The Japanese definition of ‘Fresh’

For photos of the real sushi, check out The Travelling Hungryboy.

It’s a pity that picture quality of the film is quite low due to the conversion to Flash Video so don’t miss it if you have a chance to view the actual video.
