Stereotypes

No one (with an education) likes to admit their stereotypes, but let's be honest  - we pretty much all have them. I was unaware of one of mine until I was confronted with it.


I shot this video on a street in Tokyo. In the very center of the shot is an advertisement for an arcade. For adults. In the middle of the day.

As I giggled to myself while filming, I realized that a cartoon ad for an arcade for adults pretty much confirmed a number of stereotypes I have of Japan.

I'm sorry, Japan.
