Eiji UCHIDA

Lowlife Love

Nippon Cinema   ª 

As a young indie director, Tetsuo had one big hit – after many failures, he has turned into a cynical dickhead. One day, he meets Ken, a talented scriptwriter, and Hiromi, a promising actress. Can they help him make his breakthrough? Eiji UCHIDA’s biting satire depicts the film business as a perverted rat race. Outstanding acting performances bring his vision closer to the truth than you might wish.
