About the Film
Based on a major exhibition at the Ashmolean in Oxford, Tokyo Stories spans 400 years of incredibly dynamic art – ranging from the delicate woodblock prints of Hokusai and Hiroshige, to Pop Art posters, contemporary photography, Manga, film, and brand-new artworks that were created on the streets. The film uses the exhibition as a launchpad to travel to Tokyo itself, and explore the art and artists who have made Tokyo famous for its boundless drive for the new and innovative.
