A Trailer For Ryuichi Hiroki’s YOUR FRIENDS

Posted by Todd Brown at 4:48am.

Posted in Trailer Alerts , Drama, Asia.

Director Ryuichi Hiroki - of Vibrator fame - has become a big favorite here at Twitch, the former pinku director making a name for himself with a string of rawly poetic dramatic works.  Hiroki draws a lot of attention for sexual sub plots in most of his work but the real power comes from the emotional vulnerability he draws out of his performers, a trait in full effect with his latest film, Your Friends, which leaves the sex issues behind but is otherwise one hundred percent vintage Hiroki.  I had the chance to catch this one at the Udine Far East Film Festival and now the trailer has arrived for all to enjoy.  You’ll find it below the break in the Twitch Player.

    What’s the first song in the trailer? It sounds great. (This is totally the wrong place to ask)

    I’ve been wondering that myself ... the entire soundtrack for this film is really, really great ...

    Looks Great although Ryuichi Hiroki is always great, not enough of his stuff has subs.

    Anyone know if this is coming to a Film Festival in the UK?
