The New God
Director: Yutaka Tsuchiya
1999 99 min.
Karin Amamiya has become a counter-culture icon in Japan, but she started out as the lead singer of the ultra-right wing punk band The Revolutionary Truth. With guitarist Hidehito Ito at her side Amamiya howls out nationalistic and vehemently anti-American lyrics… but is this how she really feels? Put in front of the lens of documentary filmmaker Yutaka Tsuchiya’s camera Amamiya’s right wing pose begins to crumble, driving a wedge between Ito and the rest of the band and leading her to all new conclusions about Japan’s place in the world and her place in Japan.
