Roberta, Lang and their friends experience the great Japanese city in all its manifestations to their inquiring, observing, and wandering minds as they banter over the details of a party, a film, Songs Common to Dreams, Tokyo's history, the Names of Love. Tokio Whip is a distinctly stylistic Yamanote station-by-station tour-de-force discovering the City of Language, the City as Language.
Arturo Silva was born in the United States, spent the 1980s and 1990s in Tokyo, and now lives in Vienna, Austria, where he teaches and writes about film. He is author of Philosophy of the Shirt (1986) and editor of The Donald Richie Reader (2001)
