STAR CASE: Star Wars Specialty Shop in Tokyo


WHAT: 'Star Case is a Star Wars specialty shop located in Tokyo. The owner, Yuu Katagiri began the shop in 2003 and has continued ever since. It's home to thousands of rare vintage items and contemporary collectibles. Yuu's hope is to spread Star Wars culture in Japan so it doesn't fade away.'

Directed, filmed and edited by Jason Ho, this is an exceedingly interesting documentary about this specific genre, and a emotive eye-opener to the scene in Japan. I have friends know of folks who actually have not seen Star Wars (or at least the first 3 movies), and I've not insisted they do as well, as this particular notion and affection for the story and characters need to be embraced at will, and not shoved down the throat, IMHO.
