In this Feb. 16, 2017 photo, Japanese film director Shinya Tsukamoto speaks during an interview in Tokyo. Violence pulsates in Tsukamoto’s early films, driving stories into nightmarish fantasies like in 1989’s “Tetsuo,” which ridicules middle-class conformity with a man-becomes-machine metamorphosis. The nature of violence changed in his more recent films, from whimsical “cyberpunk” horror to horrifying reality. In an interview, he says that’s why he identified so closely with Martin Scorsese’s “Silence,” in which he plays a Christian martyr in samurai-era Japan. (AP Photo/Yuri Kageyama)
