his family, consisting of his mother and his deaf sister, are very close and supportive of maito's many successes as a dancer. in turn whilst maito is struggling with balancing his dancing career with his schooling, he is also attentive to his mother and sister's needs. it's a beautiful portrait of tokyo family life, and a wonderful record of a modern, street dancer in his prime. not least because of how the family all use sign-language to communicate with each other—for his sister's sake—and how beautifully this echoes maito's use of dance to do the same with others.
we leapt at the chance to make a poster for the film. we presented a handful of ideas for a poster and benjamin chose the one you see here. the drawing and painting on the poster was done by liza evseeva. the rest caspar took care of.
the film has been selected for the canadian film festival, regard. if you have the means, do see this remarkable, moving piece of work.
