The
Making of
Born in 1995 in Ōsaka, Ken'ya Okubo has so far mainly been active in the production of indie film projects and music videos, which is also clearly noticeable in the styled style of "Cosmetic DNA" with its various effects and camera angles. But it is precisely these, together with the crude characters, that give the necessary humorous touch to a film that comes up with equally shocking images. In 2020, "Cosmetic DNA" won the Hokkaidō Governor's Award at the Yubari International Fantastic Film Festival.
