Ishii Teruo's Kyofu Kikei Ningen

[Bruce Baird]

Dear colleagues,

I read in the Midnight Eye that Ishii Teruo's "Kyofu kikei ningen"  
has never been released for mass consumption.  I wonder if anyone has  
a tip on how I might see this film, or connections to someone who can  
screen it for me.

Best,

Bruce

PS. Some months ago, there was a question on this forum about buto  
dancers in films, so you might be interested in Min Tanaka's new film  
"Umihiko yamahiko maihiko" about him dancing across Indonesia.  I  
just saw it last night at Theater N in Shibuya.  Its a pretty  
interesting and amazing film in a lot of ways.  I think its playing  
for the rest of June.  Its not subtitled, but some information is  
given simultaneously in English and Japanese. More info at:  
www.maihiko.com
