  • The film is Wind Man's first independent production, and is his first color film   .
  • The film was made in just 28 days   .
  • Shot in a Tokyo junkyard, the film set up locations and houses in the rubble, and airbrushed sheds and roads in deep pinks, golds and greens. During filming, the ground became colorful because of the chemical reaction between the paint and the rubbish in the dump, which made Wind Man happy   .
  • When filming, Wind Man did not require the actors to rehearse as strictly as before, but asked the actors to act naturally, to improvise and to add to the characters they were playing   .
  • During the preparation of the film, Wind Man asked Japanese elementary school students to send him sketches of trams in the urban area to be nailed on the walls of Xiaoliujia. While the final images shown in the film were done by the Wind Man creators, they were indeed inspired by more than 2,000 images   .
  • Because Akutagawa is more ruthless and ruthless than Apin, played by Lu Zhi, Wind Man asked Akutagawa not to blink, not even a single blink during the performance. To take a close-up of his face, Wind Man even put a clear plastic bag over his head so the light wouldn't pierce his eyes   .

Dodes'ka-den quotes

  • Yukichi Shima: [speaking to his three guests] Let me ask you a question. Have you ever found a way to get rice from a rice store? I don't mean borrowing, I mean taking it right in front of their eyes.

    Yukichi Shima: [continues] You take a big pot and get it all wet on the inside, and have it filled at the rice store. Try to get it on credit and they'll refuse. You throw the rice out, but the pot is wet. So some rice remains stuck to the sides. If you repeat that three times, you'll get enough for a meal. Eh? Great, isn't it?

  • Taro Sawagami: Father...

    Ryotaro Sawagami: What is it?

    Taro Sawagami: Is it true we aren't your children?

    Ryotaro Sawagami: Think for yourself. Do you think you aren't? I know every one of you is mine. So, you're all dear to me. But if you don't love me, and if you don't think I'm your dad, then I am not. Right?

    Taro Sawagami: But people have always said that we aren't your kids, that our fathers are all different. And they didn't just tell me, but also Jiro, Hanako and Shiro.

    Ryotaro Sawagami: People say what they want. You can't stop them from saying all kinds of things. Right? No one can really tell whose child is whose. If you believe someone is your dad, then you are his son. If someone says you aren't my kids, then you ask him about his own father. I'll bet he can't answer. After all, it's either you believe me, or you believe the others.

    Ryotaro Sawagami: [looks at the kids] Who do you believe?

    Taro Sawagami: You, father.

    [all the kids raise their hands and shout in agreement]
