[KineJapan] Found footage and archival documentary in Japan

[Markus Nornes]

It's an interesting question. I was just talking to Mark Cousins about this
while he was in Japan showing his Hitchcock film. Critics kept asking how
it was possible to make films like his. He'd explain how fair use works in
the West, and they didn't quite believe him. That this is one of the only
films of his distributed in Japan makes me think that Japanese distributors
also avoid picking up these films for the same reason.
