If you happen to be in Sundance country in less than a month, go peep The Clone Returns Home, directed by Kanji Nakajima, executive produced by Wim Wenders, produced by the wondrous Hikari, and graphic design by myself. Hikari and I just returned from a wondrous international sojourn across borders and deadlines to bring the film an updated name and identity informed by JAXA’s early identity explorations as much as Dutch Modernism. If you are in town, GO SEE THE MOVIE! You’ll be pleasantly surprised – it’s in a similar vein to Paris, Texas‘ rheumy/rummy displacement combined with Cha No Aji‘s timing. I’m super-duper-amped to be associated with this film in one fashion or another. I love work from the dawn of sci-fi and this film carries that torch unabashedly while being wide-eyed and beautiful and wholly original. The cinematography is insane and I was happy to give it the graphic workup it so needed.
