Experiencing Interruptions?

Hello, Again

One day, in a small live house, Dai and Ohno were inspired by each other's performances and, while acknowledging their completely opposite personalities, hit it off. As they gradually closed the distance between them, they became close enough to introduce each other to their partners. This is a story about the music, love, work, and friendship of clumsy men in their 30s. It is a half-true story filled with laughter and tears, reflecting the long-standing relationship between the director and the lead actor.

Director Biography - Shinichi Ono

Born in 1973 in Okayama, Japan. While working as a salaryman, I was involved in music activities. Approaching my 40s, I fell into despair, but after being deeply inspired by a certain film, I decided to create a movie driven solely by momentum and passion, despite having no prior experience. The film, titled ""SOROSORO　ONGAKUWO　YAMEYOUTOOMOU" (English title: "Yellow Guitar"), prominently featured my experiences and connections from my music career.

The lead role was played by musician Dynamite Naoki, with a special appearance by Yoji Tanaka, who is active in numerous TV dramas and films. When screened at a mini-theater in Tokyo, it was fully booked every day, leading to encore screenings at other theaters in the city. The film was nominated for "Best New Director" at the Kanazawa Film Festival 2018 and was screened at Theater 21 in the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa, as well as at various domestic and international film festivals.
