A snapshot of the state of the media in Japan today. For years, journalist Isoko Mochizuki has been conducting investigations into thorny issues and her insistent questioning of officials at government press conferences has become legendary, earning her an official rebuke. In most countries this would be a badge of honour, but in the respectful world of Japanese media it has made her a pariah. (Source: Far East Film Festival 22)
