Kenji Onishi
Directing·April 13, 1973 — 53 years old·Mie Prefecture, Japan
A central figure on the Tokyo experimental film scene and already a veteran of the international festival circuit, Kenji Onishi has made nearly 200 films since 1990, ranging from Super-8 studies of light to full-length features filled with drugs and violence.
