Independent British distributors Third Window Films will release on Blu-ray director Eiji Uchida's latest film, Lowlife Love (2015), starring Denden, Kanji Tsuda, Kiyohiko Shibukawa, and Kanji Furutachi. The release will be available for purchase on November 7.
Official synopsis: The first 100% Third Window Films production! A black comedy looking at the seedy side of no-budget film-making in Japan!
Penniless and good-for-nothing. The scum of the universe - a film about the rock bottom world of indie film-making - is born. A 39 year-old struggling lowlife film director played by Kiyohiko Shibukawa, AKA "the unique actor loved by directors", who is constantly cast by directors such as Takashi Miike, Sogo Ishii and Toshiaki Toyoda. His colleague, a lowlife producer is played by Denden, a regular cast member of Sion Sono's films. The other cast includes the in-demand talents of Houka Kinoshita and Kanji Tsuda, also Chika Uchida, Shugo Oshinari, Yoshihiko Hosoda and Kanji Furutachi who show off their distinctive styles as well as introducing a 'new face' of Japanese indie cinema, Maya Okano, who plays the heroine.
Lowlife Love is the 2nd partnership between Third Window Films and director Eiji Uchida, whose film Greatful Dead was released by us. but in this case we have solely produced the film ourselves so it's the first truly 'Third Window Production'!
