Eco-Disasters in Japanese Cinema explores disaster as a powerful means for addressing environmental crises. It is the first volume dedicated to a multi-genre analysis of environmental themes in Japanese cinema. The films examined cover 1954-2020 and include documentaries, monster films, cult films, studio blockbusters, and activist cinema. The chapters highlight important moments in disaster ecocinema, introduce films not well known outside of Japan, and analyze films not previously read through an environmental lens. Chapters are organized under intersecting themes that address the slow and fast violence of local and planetary environmental destruction: toxicscapes, contaminated futures and childhoods, nuclear anxiety and violence, and ruined and apocalyptic landscapes. This volume showcases a range of directors, eras, audiences, and genres and illustrates the profound diversity of Japanese films that feature systemic assaults on the environment.
