The exhibition will also include the background behind the creation of Aoyama Films, which continue to influence the world today.
The exhibition will also include a screening of rare making-of footage, exhibits of materials on Aoyama's works discovered after his death, and commentary and talk events with invited guests on Aoyama's works, allowing visitors to experience the world of the films from many different directions.
