The Controversial Japanese Movie 'Confessions of a Dog' comes to DVD on March 14th
Third Window Films is pleased to announce the release of the highly controversial Japanese film 'Confessions of a Dog' as a limited edition 2 disc DVD set out on March 14th, 2011
Due to the film's subject nature it was deemed too controversial to be screened in its native country of Japan and instead was distributed out of Hong Kong. We are pleased to give this film the attention it deserves by releasing a jammed packed 2 disc DVD set including
A anamorphic widescreen transfer with removable english subtitles
40 minute 'Making Of' featuring deleted scenes
Interview with director Gen Takahashi
Panel discussion at the Shinsedei Film Festival
Q&A with director at Shinsedei Film Festival

Trailers of other Third Window releases
- The first 1,000 copies pressed will include a Limited Edition collectable 35mm film cell postcard -
Synopsis:
Violence, illegal pay-offs, drugs, intimidation - all things that you would relate to the yakuza, the Japanese mafia, but Gen Takahashi's epic 3-hour exposé introduces us to the most dangerous gang on the streets - Japanese Law Enforcement.
Takeda (Shun Sugata) is an honest police officer, father and husband, but after he's promoted to detective he quickly becomes embroiled in dirty back room dealings, blackmail, and corruption that goes right to the top of the force. Meanwhile renegade investigator Kusama (Junichi Kawamoto) must decide whether he should shake the foundations of Japanese law enforcement with the information that has come into his possession about the police. What will happen if both these men listen to their consciences?
