BEST DOCUMENTARY DIRECTOR!

WINNING DIRECTOR JEFF FEUERZEIG’S(The Devil and Daniel Johnson) CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED FIRST FILM

Jad and David Fair are Half Japanese, "the world's greatest underground band", and the most unlikely pair of rock heroes you can imagine. Featuring great performances by the power duo and their musical co-conspirators, this documentary is as wildly eccentric as the subject it captures. Featuring Moe Tucker (Velvet Underground) and Penn Jillette (Penn & Teller). DVD Bonus material includes: Live In Hell 7 Concert Performances, Scott & Gary Show clips and an interview with one half of Half Japanese, Jad Fair.

Half Japanese, like The Devil and Daniel Johnson, examines the strange world of independent music and the unusual characters that inhabit it. The documentary combines interviews, live performances, celebrity appearances, as well as bonus material. Special appearances include Penn Jillette (Penn and Teller) and Moe Tucker (Velvet Underground).

Bonus material includes directors commentary, recordings from live shows, and a alternate opening track.
