  • Summary

  • Thanks for your patience Yin & Young listeners! We’re back after a break to bring you this episode with filmmaker Mayu Nakamura! In this short episode, we were lucky to have a chance to chat with Mayu about her experiences growing up in Japan, studying/working abroad, and what stories she wants to tell as a filmmaker. Website: https://mayunakamura.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/missyn510 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mayun510/ HIGHLIGHTS: * Worked in documentaries after graduating with an MFA from New York University. * Released a recent omnibus feature film called, “She is me, I am her.” 「ワタシの中の彼女」 * James and Mayu met through a mutual filmmaker friend and connected in Japan. * Grew up in Japan, but went to study abroad at young age in London and eventually the U.S. * Plans on splitting her time between Japan and the States. * Believes the Japanese film industry is slowly trying to move towards being more inclusive and promoting diversity. * Some of the topics she explores in her films are sexism and ageism. * Movies that she revisits regularly are “Days of Being Wild” 「阿飛正傳」, ”Typhoon Club” 「台風クラブ」, “A Brighter Summer Day” 「牯嶺街少年殺人事件」。 ———— Follow us on FB & IG: @yinyoungpodcast.
