We love Junko!

Considering what the editor contributed makes film reviews better.

From @variety review of ‘Me and the Cult Leader’:

“Editor Junko Watanabe deserves special mention for establishing the discursive, meditative rhythm.”

@BFEditors @Variety Junko really saved us! If anyone has a film that needs some help, she's collaborative, a strong story teller, and fluent in French and Japanese.

Eu e o Líder da Seita começa contando a história de um atentado terrorista, em 1995, quando a seita apocalíptica Aum Shinrikyo matou 13 e feriu 6 com um ataque em um metrô. Uma dessas pessoas feridas era Atsushi Sakahara, diretor deste documentário.
