Nichiren and The Great Mongol Invasion (1958) [Trailer]
Nichiren and The Great Mongol Invasion (1958)Director: Kunio WatanabeAs Japan prepares to face the greatest crisis in that country’s glorious history, a solitary Monk named Nichiren proposes a theory that, while it goes against commonly held beliefs of the time, still offers a possible solution. His firm belief in the teachings of the “Lotus Sutra” lead first to grave problems, including attempts on his life, and exile to a penal colony on Sado Island; a place from which nobody has ever returned. How Nichiren overcame these obstacles to lead Japan in prayer as the Mongol fleet approached is one of the great stories from Japanese history, and must be seen to be believed. Never before, and never since, has a motion picture told the story of how the Japanese battled on the beaches, while the Gods themselves massed their great Typhoon, called “Kamikaze” to defeat Kublai Khan’s overwhelming hordes!

Taxi Blues (2005) [Trailer]
Taxi Blues (2005) Director: Choiha Dong-ha In Seoul, there are 70 thousand taxies including 20 thousand corporate taxies and 40 thousand private taxies threading across the city. In most cases, a taxi driver works 12 hour shifts and must complete 20 to 30 trips a day in order to take home the smallest of earnings after paying 80 to 100 dollars to the taxi company. The taxi drivers go to every nook and cranny of the city with a variety of passengers at their side or in the back seat. One summer I became a taxi driver, driving one of Seoul’s 70 thousand taxies / Director Choiha Dong Ha sings the cab-driving blues in his indie documentary Taxi Blues, winner of Best Asian Feature Documentary Film at the 2006 Syracuse International Film & Video Festival. There are 70 thousand taxis in Seoul, and Choiha, whose previous works include Patriot Game (2001) and High Hill (2003), began driving one of them one summer. Setting a camera inside his cab, he candidly captures the daily life and experiences of the cabbi amid the nonstop bustle of the weary and the air of pessimism hanging over the city. Shot on video with first-person narration, Taxi Blues provides a striking profile of the sights and sounds of Seoul through revealing conversations with the very different people who board the same taxi.
