What is Killers, Clients and Kindred Spirits : The Taboo Cinema of Shohei Imamura about?

## A thorough exploration of the work of one of Japan’s most controversial directors The only Japanese director to have won the Palme d’Or from Cannes more than once, and second only to Ozu Yasujiro in the number of times he has won the prestigious Kinema Jumpo Best One award, the late Imamura Shohei was one of Japan’s leading and most controversial film directors. This book is one of the first to study all of Imamura’s major films alongside his television and theatrical documentaries, focusing on his major themes and concerns. By giving shape to Imamura’s career, the book positions him as a stylistic innovator as well as an ethnographic investigator into Japanese culture and tradition; the preeminent examiner of the hidden, barely repressed underpinnings of Japanese society. ## Key features * The first book to look at the entire career of Imamura Shohei * Incorporates the work of top Japanese Cinema scholars from the US, UK, Australia, Canada and Japan * Organised by thematic concerns that cut across Imamura’s career ## About the Contributors: * John Berra, Renmin University of China * Adam Bingham, SOAS, University of London * Bianca Briciu, Carleton University and St. Paul Unive
