A critical biography of filmmaking collective Ogawa Pro, Forest of Pressure
explores the emergence of socially committed documentary filmmaking in
postwar Japan. Benefiting from unprecedented access to the collective's
archives and interviews with former members, and analyzing Ogawa Pro's films
and works by other Japanese filmmakers, Abé Mark Nornes addresses key issues
in documentary theory and practice.

³Extraordinarily valuable, illuminating, and even entertaining, Forest of
Pressure brims with the types of information that only a key insider can get
his hands on.² ‹Mitsuhiro Yoshimoto
