Iron: A New Short Film By Hiroyuki Nakano In The Cannes Critics Week!

How on earth did I miss this ... Hiroyuki Nakano is one of the most gifted visual film makers in the world with both Stereo Future and Samurai Fiction loaded to the gills with stunning images and I have long lamented the fact that his Short Films anthology is STILL unavailable with English subtitles anywhere in the world. So, yes, I'm a fan. And so, yes, I'm kicking myself for not noticing this sooner.

Nakano is back with Iron, a fifteen minute short film about "an eccentric guy with peculiar ironing obsession." It's playing as part of Critic's Week in Cannes and - huzzah! - is already available on English subtitled DVD along with a batch of other Critic's Week shorts. I'm going shopping.
