NOTE FROM FILMMAKER
Miporin is my directorial debut and a very memorable film.
It was released in Japan in 2019 before the pandemic, and was shown in a style called “screaming screening,” in which viewers screamed and shouted along with the cast and set off firecrackers in movie theaters. And it was liven up largely, especially by the cult followers called “Miporar.”
My dream for this film is that it is loved and celebrated internationally like “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.”
I hope that one day I will be able to visit your country and scream with you.
Director/Writer: Daiki Matsumoto
Starring: Asami Kakio, Haruka Tsuda
