A new streaming service focussing on independent Japanese cinema has launched, where films can be bought or rented.
The service aims to present "quality Japanese independent films to a worldwide audience, with as few filters as possible to the filmmakers". Sakka also includes short Q&As with directors and some reflections on the films available through their service. The number of films are limited at the moment and not all are available in the UK, but it's still a great way to find unusual films that aren't otherwise accessible.
Find out more at the official website, https://www.sakkafilms.com/.
Long-time anime dilettante and general lover of cinema. Obsessive re-watcher of 'stuff'. Has issues with dubs. Will go off on tangents about other things that no one else cares about but is sadly passionate about. (Also, parentheses come as standard.) Looks curiously like Jo Shishido, hamster cheeks and all.
