Largely structured round Murakami’s enigmatic absence, the film dramatizes Murakami’s impact on his readers and takes the camera into the hinterland to determine what is “Murakamian” in the Japanese landscape. The resulting film has a beautiful sense of form and poetic structure.

“Dinner with Murakami” was the opening film of the 3rd Indie Doc Fest in March 2009 presented by The Substation. It was a sold out screening, so we’re bringing it back in December!
