A entire movie about Japanese girls with old cameras... pretty twisted if you ask me.

 

[Steve Bellayr]

What is it about? The images do not look twisted.

 

[B-9]

Odd, to say the least.

Try google translate.

There's a link (in English) in the description, and translating the site it links to reveals that this is a live-action movie of a comic strip about students in a photography club.

Odd? No more so than most Manga.

objectification squared.

The older gentleman in the movie short is Herbie Yamaguchi (ハービー・山口 b. 1950), a Japanese photographer, also known for his essays, and songwriting. In 2011 he won the Lifetime Achievement Award category of the Photographic Society of Japan Awards.

Japanese seem to love young women in school dresses. Freaky...............Gives a whole new meaning to the term "camera porn". 😀

Or it could be that people wear these uniforms to school in Japan and any other conotations that are brought to the table are from the viewer's mind? 😉

Odd? We can't judge by western attitudes. Very subtle sexual charged moments. Not to offend anyone, but I can completely understand the fetishism of the Japanese school girl. Especially when she has a camera in hand!

But guys, this film is more then just about the camera......

Blouses like that were worn by Danish boys in the late 1800´s and early 1900´s - looks really weird on a girl...
