Les clans participent à cette industrie cinématographique : non seulement ils la soutiennent financièrement, mais ils acceptent de raconter aux scénaristes leurs méthodes et leurs histoires.

这是一张凹痕累累，顽固且独特的脸。这也是一张多才多艺的艺术家的脸。这张脸的主人有着多重人生并且成为了国际化的偶像。 北野武象征着日本新电影，他是冷酷的黑帮份子的原型，他也证明了自己是一个艺术家。同时他亦是一个疯狂的喜剧演员，一位热衷于摧毁保守的日本社会的弄臣。

Expérience cinématographique unique, le film érotique nippon a su canaliser tous les débordements artistiques, politiques et sexuels de la société contemporaine japonaise.

Christopher Doyle is one of the best known and most acclaimed directors of photography in world cinema. Born in Australia, he sees himself as an Asian citizen rather than a Westerner. His artistic contribution to the films of Wong Kar-wai, Zhang Jimou and Fruit Chan films, among others, is indisputable. Filmed in DV and Super8, this documentary is a kind of wild and stylized road movie -- from Bangkok to Hong Kong, via New York. The camera follows this eccentric and outrageous artist as he gives us his thoughts on his past and present work. From the recent sets of Invisible Waves by Thailand's Pen ek Ratanaruang, and M. Night Shyamalan's Lady in the Water, to the locations in Hong Kong where he shot some of his most famous pictures, such as In The Mood for Love and Dumplings, Chris Doyle talks about his cinematic fascination for Asian culture.
