Japanese culture’s eternal rebel, an activist for rebel and anarchism and a writer of violence and eroticism. Even though there are numerous ways to describe him, there is nothing that can characterize this immortal youth who became a poet at the young age of 17 in one wording. At this year’s BiFan, we are showcasing the special exhibition ‘I am (not) SONO Sion’ hosted jointly by the Japan Foundation. Also, the director himself is expected to attend in person to spend meaningful time with the audience. We look forward to the time of ‘pure blood-red paradox’ spent with him.
