Kazuhiro Soda
Directing
Kazuhiro Soda (想田 和弘 Sōda, born 1970 in Tochigi Prefecture) is a Peabody Award winning filmmaker. He practices an observational method of documentary filmmaking based on his own "Ten Commandments" which prohibits him from doing pre-shoot research or writing a synopsis before filming. He imposes these rules on himself in order to minimize preconceptions and to be able to make unexpected discoveries while filming and editing.
