Shiori ITO: Japan’s Metoo icon is located in the Oscar statue.

When Shiori ITO decided to talk about rape charges, she knew she was facing a society that prefers silence.

Shiori said in the opening scene of the Oscar Award -winning Documentary BLACK BOX DIARIES.

Shiori became the face of Japan’s Metoo Movement after accusing the prominent reporter Noriyuki Yamaguchi.

Based on the memoirs of the same name, her famous director’s debut is a story about her exploration of justice after the authorities find evidence that they are not enough to pursue criminal charges.

But there are countries that have not yet been played. Japan is in a big debate. Her former lawyers blamed her, including audio and video scenes that she could use, which violated trust and dangerous the source. Shiori defends her work as necessary for “public goods”.

When Japan first went bankrupt, it was surprisingly turned in the story of grabbing Japan. And after her public accusation did not cause a criminal case, she filed a civil lawsuit against Yamaguchi and received $ 30,000 (22,917 pounds) for damages.

Shiori told the BBC that it was related to “reviving her trauma.” “It took four years because I was experiencing emotional difficulties,” he said.

She said in a 2015 Reuters News Agency, as an intern, he invited Yamaguchi to discuss job opportunities. He was the director of Washington, head of the Tokyo Broadcasting System, a major Japanese media company.

Shiori insisted that he was raped after dinner in Tokyo with Yamaguchi.

The addicted CCTV video is taken from a taxi to the hotel.

She said, “It was really difficult. It was like hardcore exposure therapy.”

When the film was released, the CCTV video was a former Lawyers team of Shiori and hit a documentary, helping her to win her.

They insisted that it was the use of CCTV images, and she claimed that she would not use it in areas other than the court procedure. .

Last week, her former lawyers, led by Yoko Nishihiro, had another press conference, and the use of the video filed a challenge to another sexual assault.

Nishihiro said, “If it is known that the evidence of the trial has been released, we will not be able to cooperate in the future.”

Nishihiro argued that Shiori also found this in the screening of the film last July, and Shiori also used unauthorized recording.

This included a video of a taxi driver who provided a testimony of the audience of the police who served as an internal accuser for the investigation process and the testimony of the rape alleged. The lawyers insisted that both were able to identify and did not agree to appear in the film.

Nishihiro said, “I have been working hard to protect her for eight and a half years, and I feel like it’s completely torn.”

“I want her to explain and take responsibility.”

Shiori previously acknowledged that she had no permission to use CCTVs in the hotel, but this was the night she was sexually assaulted.

She added that she is releasing a video for public goods because of the “coverup of investigation”, including police detective audio.

She said, “We are standing from different perspectives.”

“It’s a public interest for me. For them, ‘do not know the rules’.”

There was no official explanation of why the film was not yet distributed. Shiori said, “Japan is still not ready to talk about IT.”

Last week, in her latest statement, Shiori apologized, and she said she would re -edit some of the documentaries so that the individual would not be identified.

“I don’t have a moment I don’t proudly. I don’t think I’m proud of it, but I wanted to put it all and show us that we were human,” she told the BBC. “No one is perfect.”

During the nine years after the assault, the fight against Shiori’s Japanese judicial system is well known in the media and she wants to explain in detail in the documentary.

She was released in 2017 and met a wave of backlash when she received hatred mail and online abuse.

“People say you don’t cry enough. You don’t wear the right clothes … you are so strong.”

Some people accused her first accused Yamaguchi at a press conference. Shiori said she left Japan for several months, afraid of safety.

SHIORI’s case continued other famous cases. In 2023, a former soldier Rina Gonoi also revealed her story, and the former cecum was accused of sexual assault. This year, Japan passed a groundbreaking law to redefine rape from “forced sex” to “non -appealing sexual intercourse” and raised the agreement from 13 to 16.

Gonoi eventually won in her case, but Shiori added that the words against sexual violence were priced and added:

I’m not sure if her film will be screened in Japan now, but she says her home will be her ultimate award.

“This is a love letter to Japan. I hope you can screen a movie someday. And I hope your family can see it,” she added.

“That’s what I really want. It’s more than winning the Oscar Award.”
