<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Sabrina,</div><div><br></div>I was just rereading something I wrote for <i>Nang</i> magazine on Aoyama Shinji's Nouvelle Vague Manifesto ("Japonais, encore un effort si vous voulez être une nouvelle vague!," no. 6, May 2019... essay in English despite the title), and vaguely remembered reading your interesting post from April. It occurred to me that my own piece, while short, might offer a few modest insights on this topic. I don't know how easy it is to get a copy of <i>Nang</i>, and I'm afraid the text in the print edition is a little hard on the eyes (fine serif font printed in white on a black background), but I can send a PDF if you like.<div><br></div><div>Ryan Cook</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Apr 17, 2022 at 6:14 AM Sabrina Vaquerizo González via KineJapan <<a href="mailto:kinejapan@mailman.yale.edu">kinejapan@mailman.yale.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word;line-break:after-white-space">Hi, everyone,<div><br></div><div>I’m a PhD candidate and my research focuses on the Japanese cinema during the postbubble years. Being an economic downturn, and deeply influence by Allison’s Precarious Japan, I became interested in Amamiya Karin’s use of the term purekariāto and then I came with Lauren Berlant's concept of “cinema of precarity” in the 90s. Of course I’ve been reading Iwata-Weickgenannt and Rosenbaum Visions of Precarity in Japanese Popular Culture and Literature. But I’m trying to make sense of Aoyama Shinji’s Nouvelle Vague Manifesto through the “cinema of precarity” lense and here is where I become confused. Although his manifesto was prior to the neoliberal reforms in Japan, there’s a hopeless struggle in his <i>Helpless</i> (or Sabu’s <i>Dangan Runner</i> among others) which drives me inevitably to a global notion of precarity.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks in advanced for your comments.<div><div><div style="font-family:Helvetica;font-size:12px;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration:none;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><br><br></div><div style="font-family:Helvetica;font-size:12px;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration:none;color:rgb(0,0,0)">Sabrina Vaquerizo González<br>PhD candidate<br>Humanities and Communication<br><a href="mailto:svaquerizo@uoc.edu" target="_blank">svaquerizo@uoc.edu</a><br>ORCID 0000-0003-4839-8516<br>Grup de Recerca Consolidat <a href="https://medusa.blogs.uoc.edu" target="_blank">MEDUSA</a> Gèneres en Transició</div>
