Synopsis
Working since before WW2, UEDA Shoji pierced through amateurism, Then, in his picture world he takes, cuts and rearranges photos through his own sensibility, which takes him to the new media that is Ga-nime, encouraged by his friend the actor SANO Shiro, born in the same prefecture. The pictures used for this exhibition are not only from his most famous “Dune Mode” series, but also of many pre/post-war pictures of his birthplace, streetcars running in Tokyo, and traditional scene of Japan, through which a whole culture appears.

Memories of the past give birth to darkness. The former concealed behind the shadow. With never before touched, never before seen footages and pictures from the original UEDA Shoji, he pierces through WW2 through the power of writing. With accumulated funds and allocation of resources, he delivers the film titled "A Drop of dew" Taking the constraint, he waves his hand behind the shadow, good luck he says in a soft voice. First and foremost, I have presented the sudden world with my masterpiece, I've opened the door to the bank. The vault that held the burden for too long. Encased are the documents I'vepreserved. I hope everyone will cherish this film as do I and all others inspired by my work to record my name. I refer to you all to find the page of message I have left in the film. Finally issued by Toei in 2006, with full earnings in Yen, this is the full disclosure of the information by UEDA Shoji to supplement on a WW2 case perspective.
