Curiosidades

Vigilante is a 2017 Japanese noir family drama film directed by Yu Irie, starring Nao Ōmori, Kosuke Suzuki and Kenta Kiritani. It follows three estranged brothers who reunite following the death of their father.

Production

The idea for the film emerged when director Yu Irie started on genealogical research for a separate film, which was to be a period epic. This research led to him ruminating on blood ties and the meaning of family, which in turn resulted in Irie writing a screenplay on the matter, despite having shied away from focusing on familial relations in his previous films.

The film was shot on location in Irie's hometown of Fukaya, Saitama, though the film is set in a fictional town. Principal photography commenced in January 2017 and wrapped by early March. He claimed to have felt an "impetus" to return to Fukaya to shoot the film as the themes explored in the screenplay were "personal" and he wished to gain the "support" of the locals. Filming took place in the middle of winter and mostly at night.
