About This Movie

Seijo Story: 60 Years of Making Films is a fascinating look into the lives of Nobuhiko and Kyoko Obayashi, a couple whose journey through cinema is both personal and professional. The documentary ambles through their beginnings in Seijo, offering a nostalgic warmth that feels genuine. The pacing is reflective, allowing viewers to soak in the couple's bond and creative process. What really stands out is the rawness of their experiences, the practical effects of their early work, and how their collaborations have evolved over six decades. The performances, particularly in their storytelling, feel intimate and unguarded. It’s a kind of film that resonates with those who appreciate the nuances of filmmaking and the power of partnership.
