[KineJapan] Special Program on Okinawa films

[Hilson Reidpath]

Thanks for sending this out Alex.

I meant to share it as well. I really recommend to anyone remotely
interested in post-war/occupation area Okinawa to check out *Motoshinkakarannu
*at the very least. My understanding is it is *very* difficult to see. It
was also filmed towards the tail-end of the US occupation, which was a
tumultuous time for a number of reasons, but is of particular note (and
controversy) because of its depiction of the extant yakuza gangs at the
time.

Best,

Hilson Reidpath
