La Faute des Fleurs
(Vincent Moon, France, 2008, HD 70 min.)
To see La Faute des fleurs is like being hit by a Japanese spaceship. After having been told by a fan about this incredible tale, Viincent Moon traveled to Japan to meet the 59-year-old Japanese folk singer and cult figure Kazuki Tomokawa, better known as 'the screaming philosopher'. Tomokawa, who has performed in films by both Nagisa Oshima and Takashi Miike, loses it completely, burning bridges during a wild drinking spree, reaching for another bottle instead of his guitar. This deeply moving portrait brings Tomokawa, his bungled relationship with his son and his passion for gambling at bike races to life.
