01:14congratulations
01:22Now, we would like to hear a few words from each of the award recipients.
01:25First up is Night Flower, directed by Eiji Uchida.
01:39Thank you to everyone who made a selection!
01:43Night Flower commissioned an original script.
01:48Thank you
01:49As you all know, movies really can't be made by one person alone.
01:54thing
01:55To all the actors, and especially to the two actresses here today
02:01Mr.
02:03Also, there are the four main actors, Sakuma-kun and Shibuya-kun.
02:07I worked very hard to make it.
02:10We somehow managed to keep the spirit of original movie day alive and continuing
02:15I'd like to go.
02:18There will be more movies like that in the future.
02:22Please support us!
02:25Thank you, Suginaga-kun.
02:28congratulations
02:32Next up is director Keiji Otomo of Takarajimasha.
02:41Thank you so much to everyone who supported the work!
02:44This is Treasure Island.
02:46I recalled that it had been almost 20 years since then.
02:49I'm definitely going to paint a picture of Okinawa under American rule someday.
02:53The meaning of
02:54I've always thought that there is
02:58After all, we must never forget the important things concerning human dignity.
03:02I had a gut feeling that something was wrong.
03:05I think it's important to draw that now.
03:07This is definitely a very important message for us.
03:11I believed in that and charged ahead.
03:13During the preparation period, the coronavirus, and just each time...
03:18Well, that belief is a bit... how should I put it?
03:21It's like it's rattling a bit.
03:23Ukraine and Gaza, we've come to believe in them a little.
03:26Important values ​​are rattling around, how should I put it?
03:29I was seized by a wavering feeling.
03:33I also wondered what would become of creating a work like this.
03:36Well, even so...
03:37Well, that includes the fact that there's nothing I can do about it.
03:41Those kinds of feelings.
03:42I'm sure I can pour this into this work.
03:45And if you can feel something from that,
03:48I was thinking that they must definitely be there.
03:52It's a work that we all created together.
03:55Probably including what's happening right now.
03:58That is something we really need to re-examine.
04:00I think there are definitely sad things in life.
04:02I can't really say anything about being arrogant, though.
04:04I think it's important to create a work that can approach things in some way.
04:08of
04:08Personally, I'm aiming for that a little bit.
04:11I would like to continue creating artwork.
04:14Thank you so much for today.
04:17congratulations
04:22Next up is Ayuko Tsukahara, director of First Kiss.
04:29Thank you for today.
04:31First of all, I'd like to thank Yuji Sakamoto for writing the script.
04:35I would like to inform you
04:36The same goes for screenplays and novels, too.
04:40Creating something from scratch is truly a difficult task.
04:46It's a long and lonely battle, too.
04:50I feel that way from the people I've been working with.
04:55This time too, Mr. Sakamoto was very troubled during the main universe.
04:59He delivered each line one by one.
05:02This is the original.
05:04I think the only person he had to face was himself.
05:08and
05:09The feelings that were put into it were shared between me, Matsu-san, and Matsumura-kun.
05:13No matter how much through the body
05:16The question is whether it can be expressed as a form of art.
05:21I made it with great tension and difficulty every day.
05:25But I came here today
05:27People in the film industry are so resilient
05:31He speaks passionately about his love for movies.
05:33I feel like I'm on the fringes of this culture.
05:37The fact that I am allowed to be here
05:38It will also motivate me to do it again.
05:43I believe this will lead to a wonderful future.
05:46Thank you for today.
05:49congratulations
05:52Next up is director Akira Nagai of "Bomb."
06:00This is Akira Nagai.
06:03I agree
06:03It's just a perfunctory approach, though.
06:05First of all, I want to express my gratitude.
06:07The staff who always support me
06:10To all cast members and related personnel, and to the original author, Katsuhiro Okuo.
06:16And then there's...
06:19The reason I am standing here is
06:20With everyone's help
06:22Thanks to everyone's efforts
06:24I think that's exactly it.
06:29However, the award recipients just gave their speeches.
06:32Even though the director's name is mentioned little by little
06:35I can't believe Jiro Sato didn't mention me at all.
06:40I was quite taken aback.
06:42I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry
06:44I never thought I'd go through something like this.
06:45I can't believe even Bandou-kun didn't mention me.
06:49He even touched such a small girl.
06:53I really wish Yamada-kun would
06:56He said that the role of Cumulative is a lonely one.
06:59I am lonely.
07:01Nagai-san, you should get off now.
07:04I'll leave it at that for now.
07:05Also, things that don't appear in the end credits
07:08I am truly grateful to all the extras as well.
07:10Thank you for today.
07:13thank you
07:17Next up is the national treasure, Director Lee Sanwei.
07:28I agree
07:28First of all, throughout this journey
07:33With a feeling of truly sacrificing myself
07:36I write novels
07:37They entrusted that to me as a film.
07:40To Mr. Shuichi Yoshida
07:42First of all, I really want to express my gratitude.
07:45Mr. Yoshida opened up the world of Kabuki for us.
07:49Thanks to Mr. Genjiro for connecting us.
07:53The difficulty of making a film about Kabuki is
07:57The more you do this, the less likely it is to end.
08:01We staff members also feel a sense of responsibility for this 400-year tradition.
08:06How to avoid destroying
08:08Without getting dirty, while being afraid
08:10But how to proceed with the trial
08:13I will truly engage with each and every person with sincerity.
08:16That's exactly what you need to do, using all your strength
08:18It's a work that was created for me.
08:21Kabuki performers
08:22We also thank the Kabuki performers who cooperated with us.
08:26Um, how should I put it?
08:27I didn't think about it at all, like it's just a movie.
08:30Even I, who am truly looking at it, am in the same boat.
08:33Please come in
08:34I was trying to breathe some kind of life into this work.
08:37I am truly grateful for everything you have given me.
08:41Of course, thank you for supporting this work.
08:44Thanks to the many audience members
08:46Even after 10, 20, or 30 years, this work will still be relevant.
08:50I hope it will remain in the back of your minds
08:53I won't stop hoping it will be made into a movie.
08:56Thank you very much for today.
09:00congratulations
09:02Once again, a big round of applause to all the award recipients.
09:04Please do it again.
09:07Please proceed to your seats.
09:16Now, here is the announcement.
09:17The presenter was invited last year and won the top prize.
09:22Director Michihito Fujii
09:32To all the award recipients and related parties today
09:34Congratulations!
09:38I also had the opportunity to see the winning work.
09:41Lots of excitement and inspiration
09:44And I was left with a feeling of regret.
09:47I hope to be able to stand here properly next year.
09:50I would like to participate.
09:52Now, let me make the announcement.
09:56Best Director Award goes to National Treasure
10:00Director Lee Sang-il
10:01congratulations
10:02The Best Director award goes to the national treasure, Director Lee Sang-il.
10:06Please come to the stage.
10:29Now, Director Lee, please say a few words.
10:33Thank you for your hard work over such a long period of time.
10:36Fatigue is visible.
10:40Was it more than 20 years ago?
10:42For the first time, I saw the movie Fragaru.
10:43I was given the opportunity to stand here.
10:46Alcohol was also served at that time.
10:50There is lots of food
10:51There are quite a few drunk people around at this time of day.
10:56It's amazing to see what the film industry is like.
10:58I remember it as if it were yesterday.
11:03I agree
11:04No, really this movie
11:08Often referred to as an all-out war.
11:10It really starts with the actors' dedication.
11:13It's completely unworkable now.
11:15As I mentioned earlier
11:17The power of these staff members
11:19Truly filling the screen to every last detail
11:21Because it's overflowing
11:23I was able to touch the hearts of many people.
11:25I am absolutely certain.
11:28I still have a long way to go.
11:31The true meaning of how to make a film
11:32I don't understand.
11:34I had some kind of impulse
11:36I want to make something like this.
11:37Something like this
11:38Just that impulse
11:40I often run too.
11:43I guess it's that impulse after all.
11:44Probably all the staff and actors too
11:47I'm glad you still believe in me.
11:49Trust from various people
11:51Trust
11:52So, the concept of a director does exist after all.
11:55I still feel that way today.
12:00This movie
12:02Entrusted to me by Mr. Yoshida
12:05The first thing I thought about making it into a movie was
12:06It's been quite a while now, maybe 5 or 6 years.
12:08It might have been about seven years ago.
12:12The world as I felt at that time
12:16I simply wanted to make a beautiful film.
12:21At that time
12:25There are a lot of terrible situations right now.
12:27Those eyes, or rather, those Japanese films, are already
12:30It was around that time as well.
12:31Distrust between various people
12:33Something about inequality or trust
12:36There are many uncertainties between people.
12:39Something like various thorns
12:41It's like a thorn is stuck in someone's heart.
12:44There was a certain atmosphere about it.
12:46That's why it's a beautiful film
12:49That beauty
12:50After all, Kabuki
12:52The beauty of traditional performing arts stages
12:55Not only that,
12:57Something about performing arts
12:59Something like a person
13:01To pursue something to the very limit
13:03It is precisely because of such people that they possess a unique beauty.
13:07I want to draw
13:09I took on this project.
13:14I agree
13:15After all, people want to see beautiful things.
13:20I think they truly mean it from the bottom of their hearts.
13:22I have that feeling
13:23This result really did teach me a lesson.
13:28I still don't think movies can change the world.
13:32I can't say for sure, though.
13:34It's like trying to stop this trend or something
13:39I want to stop this downward spiral from continuing.
13:43I think movies have that kind of power.
13:47I still believe there's plenty of value in fighting in the film industry.
13:51I think everyone is probably thinking, "Enough is enough already."
13:55Let's continue fighting together
13:57I want to stop something with movies.
14:01I truly believe so.
14:05It's not an opportunity that comes along very often in a lifetime.
14:10Just once, something personal.
14:15Since I was 16
14:16They have been walking through life with me.
14:19My wife who supports a man like me
14:23To be a film director
14:24To the children who are pretending to be completely indifferent
14:29I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude.
14:31thank you very much
14:34This is the Best Work Award.
14:51We will now introduce the five winning entries.
14:57I don't have any talent to protect national treasures.

20:24He told me that he thought that after watching this work, and that was me
20:31Among them, there is one that left a very strong impression on me.
20:36I don't know, but whether you're someone who lives in the world of entertainment or not, what
20:42When I see Kakou seriously dedicating himself to something, I really feel that way.
20:50People are moved,
