Masaya MATSUI is Paris/Tokyo based film director.
Before starting a filmmaking, he spent about ten years as a VFX director in Tokyo, this career helped him to start directing live action films.
His first short film «The Boy And The Whore » had been shown in 15th Busan International Film Festival and his 3rd film « ORANGE » was in the international competition of 35th Clermont-Ferrand International short Film Festival.
In order to satisfy his creative thirst, MATSUI moved to Paris and started directing / writing for French films and Advertisements, as same as filmmaking activity in Tokyo.
This story is a love story between man and man, but I rather shoot this film as an ordinary love story among young people. Today, the world begins to open its mind to homosexuality more than the day before. I think it's time to make films for diversity, especially sexual orientations, to be expressed as a common sense.
In addition, the soundtrack is by one of top French violinist , Thibault Vieux from Opera Paris. Enjoy his beautiful performance as well.
