초록

Wakamatsu Koji was introduced to movies in the 1960’s. This is when Japanese economy was booming ever before after the defeat in world warⅡ.
With the help from the government’s active economic policy, Japan achieved an average 10% economic growth rate per year for 10 years from by the end of 1950’s to mid 60’s. Due to its growing economy,Japan solidified its status as one of the global economic powers. However,despite its commercial success, there were some side effects in the politics made by the government that had a significant impact to the lives of the Japanese people.
Japan suffered through a period of social change movement till the early 1970’s, due to the nation’s security issues with U.S.A, and its discontent from economic inequality.
Wakamatsu Koji filmed pink movies in the early 1960’s during Japan’s economic boom, and political movies in the late 1960’s, when Japan underwent a period of social movement. He adopted the concept of “Rite of Passage” by Arnold Van Gennep to interpret the course of significant changes in his life.
The concept of rites of passage was first used by French scholar A.
Van Gennep who was born in Belgium. He explained it with separation,transition and incorporation in his book, Rites of Passage.
He divided the world between sacred and profane and named crossing from this world, sacred to that world, profane “passage”.
This study was to view Wakamatsu Koji’s major works and acts during the six year period from 1965, when his film first screened at the Berlin International Film Festival, to 1971 at an independent screening on the documentary shooting made in Lebanon. This is where he adopted the concept of van Gennep’s rites of passage-dividing the world between sacred and profane as well as the concept of separation, transition,incorporation and regeneration.
All humans grow experiencing the rites of passage through out his life.
As artist, even the growing pains of living in a society that is rapidly changing can generate empathy and make us more understanding about the meaning of life so that we can pass this on to future artists.
Analyzing a movie director’s life and work with the concept of rites of passage means searching for the history of his life from an anthropological perspective. Furthermore, we should also examine his work using a wide spectrum of viewpoints from various analytic aspects.
Through Gennep’s rites of passage, we are able to view the multiple layers of Wakamatsu Koji’s life, thus enabling us to present his work to the world from a multitude of angles.
