I met: 

Kore-eda Hirokazu, Tsukamoto Shinya, Ichikawa Jun and Hiroki Ryuichi
and none of the directors above could take part in an English-on-stage interview. 

best,

Stefan

PS: You have the money to invite directors, but no money for translators?

  Hi there,

  I am working on programming for a film festival in the UK, and would very much like to include retrospectives of one or more Japanese directors or stars. We'd also like to invite people over for 'screentalk' events...

  Does anyone happen to know whether the following people have sufficient skills in English to enable them to participate in an on-stage interview:

  Kore-eda Hirokazu

  Tsukamoto Shinya

  Ichikawa Jun

  Nakata Hideo

  Asano Tadanobu

  Hiroki Ryuichi

  Kurosawa Kiyoshi

  Miike Takashi

  From what I can gather from DVD extras and TV clips, I suspect the answer may be none of them... Is this correct?

  Appologies in advance for the rather subjective nature of the question!
