Here is a decent article about Yama, the documentary on Sanya day laborers
which got its two directors assassinated. Incredibly, the film continues to
be shown independently by the original screening movement that formed upon
completion. I remember seeing it at one of their screenings in the early
90s. It was in some NPO space in Shitamachi, and virtually all the audience
members were day laborers. Incredible that they are still at it.
